    Tom is rock solid and sitting back on his saddle. Yatsy is virtually sitting on the rivet and keeps pushing himself back. Doesn't look comfortable at all.

    Compare Aru’s drafting the police motorbike to the huge distance the same bike was from Dennis in the final. Meanwhile the UCI is hunting for imaginary electric motors. Has no-one in the bureaucracy ever ridden a bicycle?

    that was an epic performace by Aru

    But Arus awesome ride apart, the other climbers are losing time. I hope Yates can keep it together

    Yates cannot keep still on that bike, constantly pushing himself backwards, every 5-10 seconds.

    that back sliding technique by yates is not a sign of weakness per sae.
