    That 45" to Carapaz group could quickly go in this final 25Km, with just a ~200m climb and then a flatish ~8Km finish. Unless they are worried about then gifting WVA the win.

    I've got something similar going on. The plus side of this is that the family camping holiday at the weekend might be cancelled and so I might be able to watch the last stages live. The bad news is there's now a question about whether I'll be watching it from a hospital in Marrakech... Anyone know if Morocco has a) Eurosport and b) Carlton Kirby on coms? Whether I send my wife or not may depend on the answer.

    Visma have screwed themselves over by fixating on getting WVA to the finish.

    They are going to end up with nothing.

    I think inrng pointed out a rise with about 1km to go that might tempt anyone who doesn't fancy the sprint
