Going to watch how this develops. Prologue obviously points as standing - starting with 10 to Contador 8 Porte 6 Froome etc

Today there were 4 4th cat climbs - so a point each climb - taken by Frederik Backaert (Bel) Wanty - Groupe Gobert x3 and Mitchell Docker 1

So Porte --- whoops Froome wears it tomorrow for Contador

Climbs are cat 3 ,2,2 and a finish on a 3 tomorrow (stage 2)

Stage 2
Tekelhaimanot and Gougeard take the 5 points for the cat 2'sand Teka scored on the first climb but no others which were shared by the break.

So Teka makes his move and is 3rd overall (7points) and Gougeard 4th ( 6 points)

Two cat 4's today and a nasty cat 2 before the finish

Or Pinot? He's got his stage win so might fancy going up the road then taking it easy once the spots are secure.
