    Can't quite believe anyone is helping TD at all in that group. It's his title to chase, just as Froome is doing.

    Froome unhappy with the bike? On the radio and looking at the cranks instead of the stem.

    Meanwhile, Rai goes back to the ads...

    They always help Dum for one tenuous reason or another, for years now. Then Dum slags them off to the press anyway. He holds them all in a mystical sway.

    Needs to sh*t or get off the pot - it's do or die time for him.

    But hes on the front 70% of the time, while others sit on and get towed up the gc. I'd be whiny.
    in that group. its up to him to chase

    I dont see how he's on a pot not sh*tting though! He's doing a lot of sh*tting from where im sitting.

    Eh? They're on the autostrada. Why aren't they using the valley road?

    It's the way he comes through and waves at the others all pissed off-ly. This is on him.

    It's said that everytime they've shown it by the way. Even when he was attacking on the Finestre. Pretty sure it's broken.

    That’s terrible for him. He’d been going so well.

    This is bloody spectacular. Feel sorry for Yates but Froome is hauling around a serious set of gonads to even try this attack. If he pulls it off and gets pink, the world will probably implode.

    Spent the last hour watching on my phone in Hebrew on the bus. If the end station wasn't my stop I'd probs have missed it.
