Yeah I don't like where this is going. At this rate Sky will set up the perfect conditions for Sagan's no. 4...

Good for swedish cycling to have some exposure at the tour. We havent had that in forever. Big question is if Kessiakoff can stay away from the chasers and if sky will be happy just catching the chasers. |

Couldn't agree more this stage suits him so good also... only uphill and downhill |

Is Sky gonna seriously let 20 guys go?
Don't you think its not coincidental they slowed down after Wiggins' "mechanical"
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.
You mean that first attack, which Astana chased down?

My main worry at the moment is Pinot. If he feels good I think he can bridge the gap to Kessiakoff on the next climb. Hope that wont happen.

Samu has broken his right hand and his left collarbone. Also dislocates shoulder.
Wish himspeedy recovery. He will not defend his Olympics tittle though ...

Hope the peloton catches the chasers over the next mountain with Kessiakoff still up 1.30+ min and since hes no threat they let him go |

Pinot is very strong. He got some strong climbers next to him and he just crushed them with his pace. |
