Great to see Kessiakoff at the front. Really hope he can fight for the stage win.

It suits them to regain Yellow as late as possible. |

+1 Love seeing him up there. Along with Weening and Hoogerland, he's in my velogames team so good day for me so far.

I've also got him. I need him to prove that he was worth picking.

OR.... the break isn't really too much of a threat to the final GC, so it's cool.

All the breaks were "cool" for GC a part from the Chava 1 yet Sky chased them all.

Well, Sky obviously disagreed.

Anyway Brailsford was saying earlier on that Sky were happy to lose the yellow jersey today as long as it wasnt to someone who was a threat to the final GC.
Gallopin & Pinot best positioned in GC in that break so it's not bad.

they ain't giving the break much rope, don't think they gonna make it to the finish.
Hope Nibali And Cudless attack at that last Hill, just to make sky break a sweat.
