    Roglic looks in trouble for the podium but has a stage win and highest ever finish to take home

    Roglic through CP2 at about 50" to Froome, must have gone too deep yesterday

    Roglic is losing time like a drunk on a bender.

    Post of the Tour contender IMHO.

    Just thinking that a competitive beast like Froome may be super hungry for the stage win today

    And that's the difference between Roglič and Froome, Froome might have been struggling on the last climb yesterday but he has the experience to measure his efforts over three weeks.

    Thomas confirming he’s the strongest, in case we had any doubts.

    Well if Froome wants to win this he's going to have to hope G falls off by the looks of it...

    Watching Quintana come over the line over 3 minutes down... Ouch, that's horrible.

    G will slam on the anchors and carry his bike over the line, allowing Froome to win the stage.

    Froome riding like he's had enough of this shít and wants to get it over with as fast as possible.

    The man lives in France, no? He may want to review that...

    Any chance of a Sky 1-2 on both stage and GC to cheer up their adoring European fan base?
