Interesting stage! I´m afraid, TJS secured overall win for his team already, I don´t believe someone else has a chance to get it. On the other hand a lot of co-favourites lost time today, which can lead to messy and very agressive riding in tomorrow´s queen stage. Hopefully my team will be attentive and help to Izagirre to achieve GC podium.

I'm just really dumbfounded on how Juul-Jensen could be dropped so badly in this field, even if he had two -5's in a row. I just can't explain it.

I don't know how a leader's positioning can be so bad two days in a row that he gets dropped with almost a hundred riders left. It's not like he didn't have any domestiques - Hansen was with him until the end. Something was very wrong with him.
Edit: I mean this stuff happens sometimes, it's just weird to me it happened even worse today after happening on yesterday's way less intense stage as well.

So, so close for Schreurs! Happy to see him active in the last kilometers, just a shame for the GC that he lost time yesterday.
Gallopin with another top 10, and he has set himself up in a good position before the final TT.

Well if not for Stage 2 Kinoshita would probably be winning I think, but two solid stage results and now 2nd in GC. Not sure how the TT will go now, but hoping for the best.

Not bad again but super annoyed Bazhkou lost extra time, would be in a pretty good position otherwise with him and Houle in the top 8 going into the epilogue.
Amateur wise, awesome from Mansilla! Great stuff for us, and Abelouache showing his great break stats too, a shame he couldn't turn it into a KoM win.

So now it looks like Bazhkou really could have won the race. Super annoying Congrats to sammy though, great win!
Not a good one for us overall despite nice stage results and the points classification. California onwards better be huge Thanks Abhi for the reports!

A race to forget ... again ... this year the hilly races (bar from some surprises) only give headache to me
Thanks for the reports. |

Another disaster race for us, as we look to undo all the great work Beltran does in any race he doesn't do
Congrats to the winners and thanks for the reports Abhishek

Inexplicably bad rides from Steensen and JJ here. Wasted race for us. AKA getting 9th despite worse prologue was pretty cool I guess.
Thanks for the reports

Wow. Much worse than I was expecting. That is terrible for us. 40 seconds in a 3km TT. His prologue stat isn't even that bad

That was a nice dominant performance over the 4 days here, hopefully this will help us catchup with a few of the teams ahead of us and not look quite so out of our depth in the team standings.
Thank you for the congratulations, and thank you Abhi for the reports.

Thanks for reports and congrats to Sauber, this could be injection for their fight against relegation.
Watching some names in top 5, 6th overall is very very poor result for one of the biggest favourites here. So far, Izagirre has been quite good and consistent in rides against clock, but totally invisible in his main terrain, which is quite terrifying.

Thanks for the report.
