    Meanwhile Slagter being chased down by Tiralongo near the top of the climb, rest of the break should be getting caught by the GC guys soon.

    I think ThomThom is trying to say that Slagter means butcher in Danish.

    Uran only 10-15s back with the remains of the bunch... or it was a minute ago, now 30+. GPS seems a bit wacky at times.

    Porte's become a reet canny feck.

    Landa giving Porte abuse for sitting on (cue FF complaints about wheelsucking).

    Slagter and Tiralongo working together, under 5k

    Aru has a teammate and Contador has the jersey.. Porte can do what he likes!

    Well yeah, was just saying if it was Contador doing what Porte is doing we wouldn't hear any complaints from FF :P

    I see Duran Duran has reformed from the time checks.

    Looks like Tiralongo will win this, almost 30" with 1k left, Kruijswijk chasing

    Astana have blown everyone up this week - they had 3 or 4 still in Uran's group as well as tiralongo, Aru & Landa. Too much like USPS..... :shock:

    Aru having a sprint at the very end... nicks a second over Contador and Porte I think

    Blimey with Kruijswijk's tweede place, does it mean Ridgerider's got some PTP points?

    How often did Lance send a team mate up the road for a stage win? USPS+

    The level of performance from Astana this week has been "interesting".

    That's true, but they've had almost all their team at the front of the race for the bulk of each stage this week....

    Hmm...anyone manage to count the number of "incredible" and "unbelievable" comments in the commentary?
