    There's Cymru corner.
    Pidcock should win any sprint in any case, so looking good.

    Be happy for any of these guys to win (except Ciccone)

    What's the beef with Ciccone?

    The two diesels are hanging tough and not going away.

    Pidcock can probably afford to take Froome and Mientjes with him.

    Sensible option might have been for Pidcock to wait a few kms but I guess that's just not how MTBers roll...

    I rode it for my threshold workout yesterday in tribute.

    Didn't reach the top though, needed another interval!

    Considering Vlasov was being touted as the next best thing to Pogacar and Roglic, he's been pretty rubbish.
    It's been over a week since he had his crash.
