Caruso allowed a gap going solo which I suspect wasn't what he wanted.0

A few others trying to close. Magnus Cort and Norwegian champ0

On the climb. Break has to go now surely.0

Yates pulls a group clear as Quintana realises he isn't sat on an Ineos wheel and sits up.0

This looks like it now. S Yates, Ciccone, Nibali, Bardet, Roche, Woods, Lutsenko plus others. About 20 in total and the peloton finally decide it's time to ease off.0

the yellow jersey is on a team not built to control the race on gc.
there is no one in charge"If I was a 38 year old man, I definitely wouldn't be riding a bright yellow bike with Hello Kitty disc wheels, put it that way. What we're witnessing here is the world's most high profile mid-life crisis" Afx237vi Mon Jul 20, 2009 2:43 pm0 -
Favourites seem happy to sit up but more and more clipping across the gap of about 10 seconds. Break is now nearly as big as the favourites group.0

Normally Ineos would take charge anyway so maybe a sign Geraint is struggling or perhaps seeing an opportunity to burn others out. Quintana and Martin are in the break so they can't give it that much leeway.0 -
Movistar have 3 riders in the break?"If I was a 38 year old man, I definitely wouldn't be riding a bright yellow bike with Hello Kitty disc wheels, put it that way. What we're witnessing here is the world's most high profile mid-life crisis" Afx237vi Mon Jul 20, 2009 2:43 pm0

Gap is already over a minute.0
-
The teams need to hold their nerve and be prepared to lose position if necessary to force DQS to work.0
-
i think bickering in the group may limit the gains. those Movistar riders need to ride."If I was a 38 year old man, I definitely wouldn't be riding a bright yellow bike with Hello Kitty disc wheels, put it that way.

Gonna be interesting to see who works to keep this break in check.0
-
14th-17th on GC all in the break, a long way back but the break is big enough that they could get enough time to get back in podium contention.0

Good, I've never liked it being won by someone hoovering up points on minor climbs and the early hills on big mountain days with the incumbent being given uncontested points. It would be nice to see some big guns fighting for it.0
