    Eh, that climb didnt look too tough really. Once more. Could see some nice big ring climbing tho which is always fun.

    That's what I was thinking ... Not that tough looking ...

    EBH for the win? He must have the biggest climbing engine of the 2nd tier sprinters ... Even though he's now 3rd tier himself ...

    Landa lost GC chances here maybe - not even back riding.

    EBH yeah - more than Swift. Surprised he wasnt picked in PTP.

    Pozzovivo dropped already. It's only 4.7% average!

    Think he was caught behind the crash.

    Oh ok. Thanks. This descent could get very messy.


    Is he back on to the main group ?

    3.7km, fortune favours the brave. Really hope he can hold on.

    Rolland launches a feeble attack.

    Brambilla down to 18. 2.9km

    Is J Rod going to have a go or is he just controlling things on the front?

    Yep. It was zero last year though, Italians getting a much rougher deal this year.
