    According to the timings, not losing any more time. I'd be surprised, but if true, that would be game on still.

    Remco keeping the gap fairly steady, so his legs can't have gone completely.

    We'll see the difference on the final steep climb, I expect. Bernal hasn't hit the front hardly at all.

    What was the point in Almeida dropping back once the gap was over a minute? Should have either gone when the gap was still small or not at all

    Think Remco's big issue was simply not feeling comfortable on the gravel sections. He ended up having to do a lot of work closing gaps only to immediately scrub off speed on the next corner. The overhead shots made it really obvious how cautious he was being at times.

    He's done a few, but been very smart with his effort and his team. And compared to Evenepoel in the last half hour...
