    Headless chicken routine from a ped brings a rider down after a crash.

    Surely the other two in the break won't drag Cort to the finish...

    I'd be no use as a commentator trying to build things up. Don't think the break has any chance. On that basis I should probably lay Cort.

    The gap isn't dropping that fast. But 2'10" with 45k to go in a 3 man break doesn't seem likely.

    I haven't been paying attention, but Cavendish has done well to be in the main peloton when Vine and Groves are not.

    Not sure about Groves but Vine was licking the tarmac with about 80k to go.

    That's not Barguil on the ground - he was off on the other side about 100m further back looking like he was in a lot of pain.

    This chase is going to be hard
