    Alaphillippe seems to crash a lot. Looks like a few broken collarbones there.

    Pidcock went flying down into the same ditch that Alaphilippe ended up in.

    Bardet down plus most of EF.

    G.Thomas and Valverde were held up but not sure if they went down themselves

    Worrying images of Alaphilippe.
    If Bardet went down to check on him.....

    Pidcock at front of peloton though.

    FFS why is this post held for moderation? Jeez.

    Edit: so if I add FFS it gets posted. Wunnerful software this forum has.

    He’s fortunate in so far as there’s only one climb, not two, left.
    He could be gone and Bruno Amirail wins the breakaway lottery
