    Ladies Wimbledon final finished. It took less than 1 hr. She will get the same as Federer who will play easily three times as long - what a joke. Then compare the 1.765m she gets to what the winner of this race gets who gives it to his teammates anyway.

    Some reports Cavendish behind. This makes me happy as a non-Cavendish fan.

    Reports might be wrong though.
    Fckin' Quintana … that creep can roll, man.

    the Inner Ring ‏@inrng 46s

    Rodriguez group with Pinot over a minute down on the peloton. No problem for Cavendish though, now seems he's in the peloton

    Phew!

    The Cote de Buttertubs has finished Purito and Pinot's chances.

    I didn't think he could be in the J Rod group because otherwise the OPQS team would have dropped back straight away.

    Back from Harewood. Amazing crowds and scenery. Grand to see #BSE in the early break :D but sorry to hear that Purito seems to be struggling at the back.

    Purito isn't going for GC anyway, his goal is stage wins and he needs to lose time to allow a bit of freedom

    Total shame on thibaut if he is there.

    1.30 back at the moment to peloton for him.

    This stage is pretty tough so tomorrow is going to be brutal...going to come in bits and pieces. Guessing some GC riders will get blown away. Going to be amazing.
