    I think we should have fewer unwritten rules and fair play attitude because you know what? It makes some damn good races.

    Why is Contador doing that? Just out of interest. Can't possibly bridge the gap surely? Is he just softening everyone up for tomorrow?

    Someone explain please :)

    No idea where Aru is.

    Contador is just soft pealling.

    Aru looks like he might not hold the chasing group!

    Gilbert and Chavanel coming up to Contador I think

    Is the Aru group ahead or behind Landa? Aru not looking great.

    40km, Contador at 8.55 and Landa at 10.22

    Aru group of 15 has Movistars leading it but not sure their time gap

    Special K with Aru and Amador. Promising if he still has an attack in him.

    Looks like some Cannondale rider is 50m back from Contador

    Amazing how soon Kreuziger and Basso dropped off

    Moinard, Bongiorno, De la Cruz and one other rider are at the head of affairs

    OK so the Aru group is only around 20s ahead of Landa now according to the timings... or has he caught them now?

    Contador looks like he's enjoying his racing. Dangerous.

    Contador sent a message. Now it's time to be smart. Tomorrow: 236 km (!!), three category 1 climbs and nearly 5000 meters of climbing. #giro


    Tinkoff must LOVE Contador. Seriously he needs to be paid way more than Sagan.

    Even though he knows he needs to 'rest' for the Tour, Contador just cant help himself. PURE RACER.
