    Billiant design for tv.
    Six cols before tv, one and a whole load of nothing with coverage.
    Breakaway ftw.

    By my quite-possibly-wrong analysis they should be in the green bit at 3pm

    Official ticker shows average speed as 2kmh. Crivens, at that speed even I could be a Lycra hero

    5 went clear just before the first summit, included in the group Wout Poels (Sky), Ben Hermans (BMC), Perrig Quémeneur (Direct Energie), Tsgabu Grmay (Lampre-Merida) and Alexis Vuillermoz (AG2R-La Mondiale). No time gap being given. Are Sky putting Poels up the road for Froome fireworks later?


    Edit: all back together

    De Gendt tried to get away, but closed down quickl. Nacer B already in trouble and off the back. He might be in for a very long day

    Plucky Tommy V takes the points on the Cat 4, and gets away with Vuillmeroz(spelling?) on descent


    Grmay has joined them out front (autocorrect don't like these names...) 20 secs on the peloton

    Sky are just going through the playbook practicing routines. We've had the everyone attack day, today is man up the road day, tomorrow is mountain train day, and then it's defend against attacks day.

    Eurosport live. Either someone has ordered a hit on Kirby, or he has read his thread. No commentary at the moment. Media moguls have just cut to adverts whilst they 'fix' the issue :-(
