    TdG is having one of his days.
    Even the cream of the break can’t close him down.

    He really is. Burying himself for his teammate
    Holding off that selection behind is no small ask... No least cos of the work has done all day

    Not sure why Trek are working so hard.
    The jersey is safe from Guillaume Martin’s clutches.

    Amazed the leaders were able to hold off a chase group with that fire power and who were all working. TdG is immense and that was one hell of a kick when he started the sprint.
