    Froome doing a good job of domestic for Aru.
    Come on Landa!

    Really hope Landa gets this but can't see it.

    WTF is Sky doing.

    Froome is an asshat
    It's a little like wrestling a gorilla. You don't quit when you're tired. You quit when the gorilla is tired.

    Froome has lost the plot.

    Froome being a dick after such great tactics.

    Bardet wins!

    Interesting conversation to be had in the Team Sky bus tonight if Landa watches the highlights.

    Landa has done too much work. Barguil for the win

    Barguil gets the French stage win. Landa really is useless in a sprint.

    Great win for Barguil! Froome showing his true colours.

    Very poor form from Froome

    Only 1' 46" down in the end, bonus points hoovered up by those least risk on GC. If I was Sky's DS or Landa I'd be blowing a fuse.

    Aru must have been glad to have Sky riding for him there, could've been in trouble otherwise.

    I do not want Froom to win this.

    Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.

    What the bejeesus was Froome doing? He should have left Aru out there to do all the work, silly sausage.

    Great stage but Froome clearly doesn't want Landa anywhere near yellow. Which may prove his undoing.

    Slightly disappointing second half to the stage.

    If I can be rude for a second ...
    Knobhead!

    Yes, he might want to stay in contention - but you don't tow your competitor back up to a team mate ...

    Just to add my agreement that Froome is a d1ck.

    So can we use this as evidence in the 2012 Wiggins v Froome debate - Froome proving beyond doubt that he is a shoot teammate?

    Yep. Very frustrating.

    OK I want Bardet to win the Tour now. Not Aru and not Froome. If it can't be LRP then I'd rather it was the French Exchange Student.

    How about Rigo?

    Oh yes good shout. Rigo. I like Rigo. How can you not like Rigo.

    I'd absolutely take a Rigo win.

    Still want Froome to do it just for PTP points though...
