    See page one.

    It doesn't say why though, only that there's been a change.

    Brilliant, get to watch a whole extra story now, seeing what Froome can or cannot do against Dumoulin on the last climb :)

    Sorry for Yates but this is one of those days you so rarely get to watch.

    Just popped into the clinic and to paraphrase -

    It's a motor
    It's a dodgy little shampoo bottle with stuff in
    It's a blood bag
    It's salbutamol and he will get another AAF
    It's Sky
    It's Brailsford
    It's the dirty Brits
    Etc etc etc

    :D:D:D:D:)

    How would you describe Dumoulin's facial expression?

    Lopez got a gel from Froome on Finestre, didn't he? And him and Carapace are just sitting in. He's going to nip in for some bonus seconds as a thank-you

    I think TD has cracked mentally. Those four on his wheel have frazzled him. They'll jump him at some point.

    Dumoulin looking more and more as if a big hammer is going to appear over his head on the climb.

    I think we've had some close to 100 haven't we? Certainly over 50.
