    Great ride from Gall - not as dodgy descending as I thought!

    That's a horrible finish at the end of a stage like that.

    Gall takes the stage by 35". Gaudu struggling to get up the final ramp where Bilbao drops Jonas who pretends to be a bit tired to silence The Clinic.

    Agony for Pog.
    Winning gap in Paris could well be over 10 minutes….

    The Yates brothers could potentially finish 3rd and 4th on GC as Rodriguez only has 18" on Simon.
