    Tom D is 40s behind group 4. Not sure who that is.

    Nibali has a nibble.

    Quintana dropped or sandbagging?

    Maybe they're just tired. As Pozzovivo and Zakarin try something.

    Also, don't you find the slow burn of whether Dumoulin will keep the jersey exciting?

    And chapeau to him. At least he's got the balls to try something.

    Given what happened at the start of this stage I'm assuming they're knackered.

    It certainly looks like that.

    Only if he got it from the team car. He's allowed to pass over his spares.

    This is weird; Dumoulin can't have blown completely as he's holding the gap - but the others aren't exactly turning the knife.

    Costa more bothered about 2nd than Rolland. 3rd 2nd for Costa.

    I'm going to be a little disappointed if the main GC riders arrive with their domestiques.

    Least deserving Maglia Rosa of the Giro...

    Dumoulin lost 1 minute.
