    Ineos' tactic of picking a squad of classics riders surprisingly failing again.

    I'm surprised bora didn't drill it earlier to put Bennett in more stress and out of the time limit. Perhaps they will try this on the queen stage.

    Must have tuned into Kirby instead of his DS by mistake.

    Have Ineos announced any Signings yet? They really need some climbers don't they.

    Ineos started the Tour as Grenadiers and before the second rest day, have become Dad's Army.

    Perhaps Bernal is doing a better job of judging his numbers and will be fresher at the end when it kicks off.

    Ineos seem to have reasonable numbers. I'd assumed for the prior comments that Bernal would be isolated.

    Ive only just finished work.

    The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.
    I am not sure. You have no chance.

    Ok, just thought I'd mention as I hadn't seen it. When was it announced?

    The descent was pretty nasty, bumpy surface

    Yates looking sly
    He let the wheels go earlier in the day ... Super economic ride
