It seems, this is a crazy hard stage, i hope they keep the pace up. This has the potential to become a great cycling day  |

People are going to end outside the time limit today, and it is partly Pinot's fault. Sky will not slow the pace down, cause they down't want him to get back into the race again. We got a great race ahead of ourselfs today  |

Majka doesnt even need to race Pinot. Just drop him on the descent. Easy. |

Majka vs Pinot would be a great battle for KoM indeed, although I have the feeling Pinot havent quite given up on GC yet

landa looks better than 90 % of the field after pacing up tourmalet and x -kms after. Nothing short of an amazing rider

2 mins left for GVA. Brailsford must be feeling confident. He must have a trick in his fridge for tomorrow. |

Sky actually might have too good of a climbing squad. With good/great climbers working this early they might just tire out rest of their domestiques. So they won't be too much of a asset on last climb.

He never looks like he is hurting, similar to Quintana and Nibali in that aspect. I like it! |

What I was thinking aswell, Nieve, Poels, Thomas and partly Henao looked more hurt than Landa. With Landa catching in on the front, hes obviously going quite fast aswell
