Btw they have been riding up this "warm up" climb for approaching 40 minutes now. |

Don't worry, this is only the Glandon/Croix-de-Fer.
The Madeleine is next. It's much harder.

Seems like the 2nd group isn't working well at all. Losing time on both the leaders and the peloton.
I think we'll see a few of those riders creating a new group closer to the top, while the rest drop back.

Yes, this stage could be the genuine Queen for me but as always depends on how it's riden more than anything else. |

Yeah, smaller group of maybe ten, but i think without Riblon, he has to pay for yesterday.

Ad break here  Sky were off the front due to Froome back in the cars so if it shot up that could be it? |

It is increasing, but the timer showed a change from 6'30 to 5'45 in 10 seconds

It's not just the GPS that's out of control.
2 minutes apart, Martins claimed that Thomas is in the break and that Thomas is pulling the peloton.
