    Is it? I missed most of yesterday for a meeting.

    I assumed this was the morning stage before the time trial this afternoon. I am watching without sound as I am in the office. :oops:
    It's live. Split stages today, as you correctly said.

    17km to go.

    Tram lines. Nice. I'd forgotten about those. Nasty. :shock:
    You only need two tools: WD40 and Duck Tape.
    If it doesn't move and should, use the WD40.
    If it shouldn't move and does, use the tape.

    Greipel then Kristoff but maybe too close to call officially yet

    Viviani lost position again. Needs to sort that out

    Looks like Greipel- just. Thought Kristoff took it up a bit early but he is so strong he just doesnt seem to fade.

    Or not. Giving it to Kristoff.

    Sporza call Kristoff as the winner but Eurosport disagree. Possibly a dead heat.

    Viviani started jumping between wheels even when he had a leadout in front of him. Didn't look very clever tbh.

    First off I thought Greipel, but it's really close.

    Taking this picture and using the cutting edge technology of MS Paint, I make it a dead heat. That close.
