    Two riders need L-plates, just as Sagan passes them and notes their faces for future races. :D

    Was reading yday a suggestion that Pog apparently prefers slower and then more explosive stages rather than just faster from the gun stages, which better suits Vingers.

    Not sure if that's necessarily the case, but one to look out for.

    This is what Lanterne Rouge contenders mean by marginal gains

    They just want it raced hard, which means Van Aert has to ride hard to stay ahead.

    Jonas is going on the Tourmalet. I can feel it in my bones. He wants to use the altitude to put Pog to the sword.

    Only a few years ago we would be talking about Bernal's advantage when climbs went over 2000m.

    Maybe Bora are more worried by Jonas going long with WvA
