    Kamna has a solo chute.
    Glad I'm on ITV 4 as Kirby will be firing off Lennies, left right and centre

    I’m getting an education on which riders are friendly with each other because of where they grew up as juniors #sporza

    Is ITV4 showing the race from start to finish?

    I'm in my local bar and can barely hear the commentary anyway so GCN is a no-brainer. But, for stages I watch at home, I may decide to put up with the adverts.

    Martinez down.


    Sagan - you suggesting he went ahead a) for the green points and b) to “anticipate” the two cat 1s??

    I'm on ITV too, despite paying for GCN. I'm finding the commentary way better and the as breaks allow me to check my favourite cycling forum...

    Belgians saying it’s very windy at the finish and it’s very blowy on the descent.

    What happened to Mads today?

    Dropped on the second climb, hung on until about two thirds of the way up.
    Going to be a long tour for him and a few others
    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.

    Valverde's motor must have packed in.
