    Carapaz being dragged back. Hadn't realised he was such a threat to Movistar's coveted team competition.

    Carapaz is going to get nothing but tired legs for his efforts. Well worth it for movistar if it helps valverde finish 10th. :|

    These Slovenians are quite good. Full set now for Mohoric

    Meh, they still need to look after their own GC riders

    MVDP making a big effort to maximise my PTP points and make some amends for letting Mohoric ride off. Good man.

    Carapaz caught on the line. Movistar should put that much effort into beating Pogacar rather than just riding down Carapaz

    Wow, what a waste of effort for Carapaz, caught on the line!

    Don't think Pogacar will get that lucky twice.

    Does Movistar have a big market in Slovenia? That's twice they've helped out the Slovenian favourites when they were under pressure
