    Come on Gallopin, hope he gets the GC. Certainly deserves it.

    Wind must be pretty awful if the times are so much slower. At least 20 riders faster in 2013 than Tony's time today.

    Spilak somehow gets 16 sec out of Tony's time.

    At first check, G is 24 secs behind Spilak, Kwiatek 18secs, Costa 11 secs.

    Costa comes in 11 secs down on Spilak and was 11 secs ahead of him in GC.

    Porte this year vs last year is chalk and cheese. Let's see how long he can hold this up. No doubt he will move his 59kg round the Tour TT's faster than Tony Martin.

    It's a mountain TT, he was always going to beat Martin. Fs just when you seemed decent, you've turned right back to the old days.

    That gives Sky 13 wins so far this season. 2nd overall.

    Let's hope they dont take T-A with a domestique.

    Well that wasn't even close. I guess he was smoked from yesterday. Understandably.

    Still, a beautiful win yesterday that he can be proud of. 100x better to win a stage like that then take the overall and do nothing standout.

    Congratulations Porte.

    What about Porte's attack the other day? That was pretty standout.
