    YES! Go on Froome. Massive kudos to Yates, I thought we’d be waiting years for a successor to Froome but maybe not.

    Yates makes 16s on Pozzovivo and 30s on Dumoulin plus whatever bonuses.

    Jesus christ that was tense... what a finale. Really thought Froome was going to get caught there.

    Dumoulin lost 30s or less - surely still the leader on paper.

    Cycling at it's best. Man on man. Pure force of will to get there.

    Perfect time gap between Yates and Dumoulin for the neutral?

    Nothing suspicious about that turnaround in performance by Froome - if you believe in miracles.

    Bore off.

    I doubt you even knew what a peloton was in the ‘90s when that kind of revalation was relevant.

    Yates 1-24" lead on Dumoulin or there abouts.
