    Roglic 50m on the front and dropped. That was a waste of Wout

    Worse than that - the only thing that achieved is bringing Majka back for Pog.

    Maybe a ploy by Jumbo. Rog bluffing....

    Getting dropped isn't bluffing - now Pog doesn't have to work as hard as he perhaps would have to if Yates and Thomas wanted to try and do something, Wout pulling this group doesn't do anything for JV chances

    Absolutely colossal waste of effort - just because you can do something, doesn't mean you should

    They really should have just left Jonas alone with Pog. Why bring everyone and their granny back?

    They must have been convinced Roglic had a few km of hard climbing in him. He did not.

    Big effort by the coathanger there to overtake Majka and then lose contact

    Warren B got to regulate...

    To be fair to Rog and the the petit dumbos, I managed 3.5kph on the steepest km of this climb B)

    So we agree: Jumbo were muppets?

    Arkea 1-2.

    Barguil suffering like a dog! How much time is Roglic losing?

    Oy. That's unfair to muppets.

    Who gets the win - Quintana? Barguil looks to be struggling now...

    Carlton now cacking himself about someone riding off the edge of the climb. The only rider capable of that was Denis Menchov and he's long since retired

    So when it comes to the crunch JV are down to a single rider whilst Ineos and UAE have two in the group (and Arkea have two up the road!). Had to be tried but ultimately looks like it has failed.

    How on earth is Majka-19 doing this?

    He did absolutely no work in the valley, just got towed along

    Think he's got a different variant to the one I had a few weeks ago where I just wanted to curl up on the sofa.

    Exactly. I got puffed going to the loo.
