    Pogacar got robbed.

    Will be funny if he looses the TdF by less than 3 seconds.

    Geraint Rodriguez?


    It has to be said that the Joux Plane has failed to deliver, except when it delivered Floyd Landis.

    All that for nothing basically

    Big changes behind the top 2 though.

    Apologies to C-Rod - he’s no Zubeldia after all.

    That moto moment was ridiculous. Not the rider's fault, he had nowhere to go!

    Rodriguez goes into third as he got the final time bonus on the climb.

    Maybe Ineos do already have their GC contender after all.

    Finished 8'-40" down.
    So I guess he has his answer about whether or not he's a 3 week contender.

    Thought it was Martinez going there?

    Given how well he’s doing with no support, might actually have decent prospects at Movi.
    (I thought it’s Rodriguez heading there)

    He’d have to race his own teammates if he goes there. Ineos may be having a relative lean patch in GTs but if I was a genuine contender I’d rather be there than Movistar any day.

    He's rumoured to be going to Bora-Hansgrohe.

    FWIW, I think Rodriguez would be mad to go to Movistar. I know Ineos are not the team they used to be, but they are far more likely to get the most out of Rodriguez than the clown show that are Movistar. [Added] As you've already said.

    Wout today was crazy, but what an example of a cyclocross effort. As soon as Majka eased off a touch he got back and buried himself for two minutes or so and blew majka out the back.
