    Carapaz is a violent pedler

    Surely Nibal will attack on this last ramp, given his descending skillz?

    edit - he can't live with the vans!

    Think of the gaps this weekend after everyone has just smashed themselves to bits on a 250km classic today. Unreal

    Well I haven't got a clue what's happening other than I should have taken my less safe first pick for PTP of Mohoric. Very entertaining, not much work getting done though so will have to do a late one tonight.

    Worst possible time to get dragged into a meeting...

    Having paid roughly the same amount of attention to my work as Powless was there, I managed to focus for just about long enough to hear myself agreeing to do something or other for next week.

    I have literally no idea what.

    Totally worth it though. Fun stage this, isn't it?

    Carapaz has 45" on Pogacar gained mainly on flattish terrain

    Carapaz on a mission. WvA and MvDP could be the dynamic duo for the next few years

    Movistar: Pogacar must be wetting himself laughing.

    Carapaz finds Van Baarle.

    Don't believe these time gaps, the two Vans in full flight not taking back the sounds unlikely

    Yeah my boss called me up for a handover, as I am off next week... Bloody nuisance!

    Only at the Tour would you knowingly ignore a race leader in trouble, to protect 7th place, with 14 stages to go.

    Movistar are always weird with their tactics. Sometimes you think do they know something no else does, but then you soon realise no, theyre just terrible. My 11 year old son would do a better job
