    As long as Crashbike can hang on to Ineos they will be happy to flog themselves on the lower slope.

    Yeah, but over 20km of climb still to go... it’s like a sprint lead out of 4 riders with 4km to go and they haven’t worked out the maths...

    They want a race of attrition as that suits Steven most so they just want it has hard as possible.

    Jumbo Visma developing a nasty habit of starting GTs on fire but burning out towards the end.
    SK's support is a bit thin a bit soon.

    This is pretty much how I expected things to go, so far.

    George Bennett's mum is in no doubt that George is not wearing his vest.

    Think they've spotted Bennet, who's been used up and left for dead.

    Sir Wiggo quite a natural. The Kelly and Wiggins combo was pretty good, alas he's now gone.

    Jumbo and Ineos need to do a deal to get rid of Alaphilippe.
    Can't expect De Plus to go for 15kms.
