    Yes. It's all a bit too much for Carlton...

    Can't knock it, he and Kelly must be knackered too
    It's only a bit of sport, Mun. Relax and enjoy the racing.

    I don't like you Bertie, but you've deserved a stage victory this week. No don't change your mind again!

    Chapeau Froome dog.

    Contador takes it, misses the podium though.
  • Adios Bert! Great ride today! I'm sure he'll have a great ride into Madrid tomorrow.

    Sky cocked up there. If Froome had come second, the points jersey would be his. Instead he has a 26 point lead with 29 points on offer tomorrow.

    Joy for cycling fans globally!

    Great way to sign off a career and great way to write yourself into the history of the sport. Well done Contador and Froome!

    Another 500m of that climb and Contador would have been caught, not bad considering Froome looked cooked earlier!

    Fair point, I doubt he'll be thinking of that today though! Still maybe time to poach some intermediate points tomorrow?

    Caught, but suspect Froome would have gifted him the win. He's not totally stupid, and has to finish tomorrow's stage...
  • WELL DONE BERT

    Very happy with that

    It was as it should be
