    Well I feel a Froome pink

    Why, how is he gonna beat Dumoulin by minutes?


    Froome needs to finish 2'51" in front of Dumoulin to take the GC jersey

    At the moment Froome is 3'21" in front

    Here we go. This is probably what we expected to happen, except without CF 3 mins in front.
