    In today's performance of 'Tour de France 2012' the role of Wiggins will be played by Aru, Nibali by Contador and Froome by Landa. Bizarre tactics!

    Congratulations Landa for the sage win and congratulations Trofimov - super ride and moves up on GC quite nicely.

    Kruij and Amadour do well and end down 36 secs.

    Looked a bit like collusion to me. 'I won't chase your mate down if you don't try to beat me'.

    Nice finish there, would have been nice if Aru was a bit stronger and we got a better duel, but can't really complain.

    Got back from the club run just in time for the last climb, perfect timing 8)

    Hesjedal has heart. Rode the whole climb solo and comes in 3 mins down

    2mins means nothing when it comes to the Giro. And this is not even the hardest mountain stage.

    Just out of interest, apart from the paintwork, is there any difference between the bikes Astana and Tinkoff-Saxo use? Or are they identical ?

    A good ride from Konig and Ryder gave it 100% as always. Hopefully Konig can go top five in the GC and Ryder will keep chipping away and might get a top ten finish next Sunday.
