Jesus Lopez, he had enough with this slow tempo apparently. 
Meanwhile, Talansky and Insagirre having more then enough with following their domestiques

You know that was a pretty good stage in the end, I don't really mind that it was shortened

Disappointing as both a Tejay and Talansky fan today, but I kind of expected it. The shortened stage called for more acceleration than pacing and endurance, which disafavored Talansky a lot. He's also not a good descender and the rain made that even worse so i accepted he was gonna be gone pretty early. Then Tejay kept pulling the group even though he's a bad sprinter and I knew he wasn't going to take the sprint.
Good race though, ready for the Tour now!

Yep easily the best stage of the race and I think having a short mountain stage with a descent as the last stage of a stage race (or the last mountain stage of a GT) is something that should be more widely adopted. I praised the original design of this stage when it was first announced and it panned out pretty much as I thought it would today in terms of aggressive racing both up and down the pass.
Overall I enjoyed it as a race, although there was a bit too much slugging it out on 10% MTFs. Pacing-wise, if it was something along the lines of Prologue-Flat Stage-MTF-Flat Stage-Flat-Rettenbachferner-TT-MTF-Fluela stage, it would have been excellent but the Rettenbachferner rather dampened the two preceding MTFs and having 5 GC stages in a row was never going to produce super action on all 5 of them. But much better than last year where it was just Rettenbachferner + an ITT + a bunch of flat/not great hilly stages.
