Did Tom take water from a road side spectator?

Didn't George Bennett get in trouble for that at the Tour last year?

Froome poured it over his head

The moral of this story is don't listen to a word Carlton says.

CF checks the stem. All good. Losing a little time though.

Pozzo dropped from his group

Why don't those other three just sit on TD's wheel untl the final few hundrd metres instaead of pissing about?

You guys all criticize Carlton which I guess is fair game. But drunken sailor Sean Kelly isn't much better.

I'm afraid if you don't realise how much complete rubbish Kirby spits out then it must be that you don't recognise what's actually going on yourself.

Kirby reads everything wrong.

It may sound dramatic because of his stupid pitch going up and getting louder and louder but it's all bôllocks.

The guy is a f*****g idiot.

Read the race yourself and Carlton is just champagne on top.

Is it too early to talk about Froome being one of the all time greats?

shirley_basso

TD looks great on the bike.

CF adding a few more seconds. 3.18

What's Italian for "flamme rouge" ?

richard_t._biscuit

1k, 3:15. Amazing.

Have to say, I’m pretty gutted.

Last time I felt like this was Armstrong up Luz Ardiden.

adr82

Ticker still wrong, 1k for Froome

Pinot and Lopez are only 30s apart.

You're watching one of the finest GT stages in history. It is not a time to be gutted.

That's a new rumour about Lance on me - got any proof

shirley_basso

Start your stopwatches!

What's so gutting? The only comeback I can think of which could rival this is only worthy of mentioning in the bottom bracket forum.

AndrewCowley

One of the best GT stage victories, ever.

Yup.

Back from my funeral. Did I miss Anything?
