    They have them in December too, but they call them cyclocross

    Sagan sprinted for the remaining green jersey point(s), there must have been hardly anything left?

    Is Bardet losing his head?

    Well it's something to do with motors, that's the one thing we know for certain.

    What on earth is the Direct Energie car doing so far up the peloton? It can't have dropped back from the front group, surely?

    Eurosport Player offering 4 different moto feeds is quite cool.

    That was madness. Could have ended in disaster.

    On a stage like this, why are they using support cars instead of e-bikes with trailors for spare bikes? Far safer on these narrow cobble roads, plus it promotes e-bikes a bit!

    Dodgy shortcut taken there on the pavement round the corner, DNS might be coming up.

    Fans having to step back as more than a few riders cut the corner... Proper flirting with disaster this stage.

    Elon Musk is really sad it's not raining, would have loved to get his submarine out to rescue a trapped rider. Quintana would fit it easily.

    Nah, Elon'd be busy waving a jet-pack powered one of these to smooth out the cobbles:

    I get irrationally annoyed when ITV and Eurosport are both on an ad break at the same time and I can't flick from one to the other
