    Stay classy French supporters.
    Napoleon, don't be jealous that I've been chatting online with babes all day. Besides, we both know that I'm training to be a cage fighter.

    Froome left to try and catch by himself, but Landa has dropped back.

    Froome in the cars but AG2R winding it up. Froome getting booed big time, Landa drops back. Quite a ride by Froome but the GC riders ought to attack now.

    Straw pole: Does the booing help or hinder Froome? Some sportsman assert it makes them stronger - others need the adulation

    Hasn't had much effect previously, has it?

    Not sure what's going to kick off next, but that's a great ride by Froome to get back on.

    Sky to Landa to go, because Froome is shot from the catchup?

    Don't like Froome but this is a great ride. He's back on the group, Landa straight to the front. They need to hit him hard now.
  • My respect for Landa is going up and up over this tour.

    Landa is seriously strong.

    Solid work from Sky to get Froome back into the AG2R group

    Doubt he could hear much above his breathing, heart beat and pain to be honest.

    Bardet and Uran go.

    Back together and Froome looks pretty good considering. They have to keep trying to though.

    Froome strong after the wheel swap catch. Marking Bardet.

    Looked like Bardet was going again but they've cut to the front.

    Nope, all together still.

    Mollema attacking at the front,

    I didn't think much would happen on this stage but its excellent so far.

    Must be a bit worrying for the rest that Froome got back and they haven't moved him.
    Geraint said Landa is a good team player.
    Sky would be crazy not to give him more money and sole GT leadership, next Vuelta.
