    Front group of 5: Contador, Porte, Uran, Pozzovivo, Aru.

    Porte attacks... doesn't get anywhere.

    16ks, Contador launches a soft one.

    Froome was struggling to stay with a small group containing Rolland last time I saw him.

    Onto the final descent for the front 5.

    15ks, Contador attacks again. Porte glued on his wheel.

    Wonder what's up with him then, is he still suffering with a chest infection?

    Pozzy Bear has a very low saddle. I know he's small but that's still pretty low.

    Nice to see Pozzo there.

    This group is seriously elite. Good to see.

    Uran the best sprinter of the five?

    Talansky has just caught back on. No sign of Martin.

    Pozzy's so little he keeps getting distanced. He really does have a low saddle if you look at him from the back. He's got that knees out thing going on.

    Contador waving arms around, not a happy camper. Doesn't want to be on the front all the time.

    Froome/Rolland/Valverde group 50" back.

    And Dan Martin appears at the front!

    Martin at the front now. Must be the favourite in a sprint.

    Gap is 42" at 9k. Talansky goes to the front and starts pulling.

    Carlton's crush has arrived at the party.

    Porte riding like a rider with absolutely no shame unless he is riding for Froome still.

    As Porte hits the front. If anything Pozzy is the one that's sitting pretty.

    I am at 8km and have watched all of it. Porte's nose has been in the wind less than 30secs.

    Yeah I think he's been doing even less than Porte.
