Costa has pulled Nibbles pants down there. Sensational ride. |

I hope to see stages like this in the Tour.
Rain = Sky train off the tracks?
If so, I hope we'll see quite some rain. |

This is all after just being the greatest climber of all time...
I know he is dirty but why the fuck does he ride like that is my only question.
It makes ZERO sense.
also today..I also never will understand this guy..and never know is he droped because he is out of energy..or he's power meter don't let him ride faster at the moment. |

Benoot, what a great allrounder!

What an amazing stage and still a whopper of a stage tomorrow.
Last two Dauphine's have been great races - riders and teams not quite put together for Tour strength.
Simon Yates jesus he was the best of the rest - another youngster to watch with Benoot, Aliphillipe. Great to see the emerging names mixing it with the established guys.

Also worth noticing that Rui Costa seems to be at his best in this time of the year. He's always so good around Suisse/Dauphiné. Guy knows how to peak, or maybe he doesn't and peaks a month too early? |

I think he just knows he can't handle a 3 week stage race and goes for what many consider to be the next best thing.
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

I just don't think he has a good racing brain, he positions himself poorly and his attacks are obvious, if he can't ride others off his wheel then he has no plan B. If they didn't have race radios and power metres he would be lost.

Incredibly strong performance by Bouhanni somehow surviving the Rousset in the peloton of around 40 riders, all known to be good climbers.

Brilliant win by Costa.
Once again proving he's probably the smartest guy in the peloton.
Benoot is a monster. End of story. He's going to be a hell of an all-rounder. |

Happy for Costa.
Also Nibali showed his agressiveness even not on his best form
