    Nibs trying to get Carthy to work there? He'll probably have a whinge about it afterwards.

    Great ride from Carthy though.

    This descent is going to be hideous.
    Napoleon, don't be jealous that I've been chatting online with babes all day. Besides, we both know that I'm training to be a cage fighter.

    Roglic sliding off the group back with Yates. I hope no one crashes on the descent

    Bins the jacket. Not sure why he was given it within a few meters of the top when chasing KoM pioints.

    Newspaper instead
