    Evans' TT position cannot, surely, be the fastest possible. It's just far too low with his hands pointing down.

    I wonder how much TT tunnel work he has done, and whether he has approached it with clean eyes or just micro changing an old position (when there might be a much better position).

    Well trusty old goat Evans is not being so trusty is he.

    If I think about it the last decent TT I saw Evans do was that one in the 2011 Tour where all he had to do was beat Andy Schleck...

    Uran Uran is the man, this is going to make things interesting.

    Mind blowing.

    Now can anyone wrestle pink away from him? He's going to have some solid support in the mountains with Poels looking to still be in good form.

    A near-decisive Stage then? Hell of a time.

    Well there's a Colombian in pink, just not the one we'd thought we'd see.

    Aru now descends like a snail.

    The giro hasn't really started yet. All serious mountain stages still to come.

    Evans recovered there, with 94 seconds to Uran, but took time from the dwarf climbers.
    Quintana with 3 and a half minutes to find against another Colombian climber.....
