    Good time by Peraud considering, I think he may have gone too hard after the puncture though.

    Valverde continues to lose time to Bardet.

    Pinot needs to sort out his technique...all over the place. Peraud going 100% all the time.

    Konig 4th at the end. 4th. Amazing.

    Konig 4th fastest so far-2 x MTF finishes in top 10 and possible 7th place in the overall-in his first tour.Impressive.
    Whats the solution? Just pedal faster you baby.

    It doesn't look the tidiest or most efficient.

    Bardet might be in danger from TJ at this rate, he's making up a lot of time

    Gutting for Peraud!

    Konig's performance could help my attempt to overhaul Blazing Saddles at the top of our club Velogames league. Also have Pinot so Peraud's problem could help me.

    Mollema's ride looks certain to make me owe Joelsim £5 :x

    Happy days.

    Sucks about Bau&Lau and Valverde.

    Well done for König and Dumoulin though!

    Uff TJ had 20secs to make up for 5th on the last check...looks like he would have done it anyway but given Bardet has just changed his bike its almost certain.

    Oh dear punctures galore for Ag2R.

    Was that some boos for Señor Hairplugs?

    Anyone looking for tyre advice on the Bikeradar forums: I wouldn't recommend whatever AG2R is riding on.

    Bardet rocking the negatve split, or is the Tour website messing with me?

    Only 10-12s between Pinot and Peraud apparently

    Mollema hangs on to 134th on the stage

    Despite his style Pinot is going pretty fast.

    Mollema down on Martin by 9.26!!!

    Bardet lost his place because of a puncture. Very unlucky.
