    Guys like Horner and Costa should be trying to do something and hope the GC guys mark each other out of the chase. I'm sure Schleck and the Saxo boys could chum along to make up the numbers.

    Porte looks like he needs some sugar, maybe a chocolate bar if he has a favourite one.

    12km from the finish, looks like he could be losing a packet.

    I can't really see the point of Nieve waiting.

    Would be fitting if he had ran out of gels.

    Not looking good given they are just riding tempo.

    HUGE change to when he was dropping Quintana :roll:

    Move from Pinot, Nibali and Valverde respond. Pinot still pushing

    Tour winners do not go backwards on the first real MTF. Porte has been found out (as expected to be fair).

    Note that Majka is there. Nice work being up there for Contador earlier in the race :roll:

    Konig attacks. 20m. Pinot counters. Nibali moves into his slipstream all while seated.
