    I think they're just trying to keep the pace high enough to dissuade an attack

    Uran has played a blinder in terms of increasing the chances of a GC dust up on the final climb.
    Jumbo and Ineos couldn't ask for a better situation, having had to do virtually nothing.

    I think there's only one that will get you a ban (outside of threatening etc).

    Caused Limmy to have to delete all his old tweets when he got into a spat with BTS fans.

    Jungels isn't racing against the knackered riders in the breakaway. Over 3 minutes
    should be enough against the GC battle?
