I think TVG might actually win the stage. Good for American cycling.

Shame, just not the recovery there for Martin still it seems, unless he's ill or some such. |

Looks good for TJ right now. He's gaining time on the pack, unless something happens on this climb it's gonna be his. |

is Dan Martin and Talansky still in the group?
Nope, being dropped as we speak.
They always are at the back trying to hop wheels back on. Don't they know anything of positioning?
That's not bad positioning from Martin, it's bad legs, he will be nowhere today. |

Valverde does not look good.
Also if the Dutch are like this now, what will they be like after another hour of drinking?

Come on, favourites - time to do something.
We can't have TVG winning this stage...

I think the minute they have the first sip they are like this then just sustain it for 48 hours? |

Skyborgs got some marginal gains for the occasion and killing any incentive to attack ? |

Martins is arguing that Sky have never failed in the Tour so far, because stage 9 'was not a mountain stage'
Eery silence is the response by the other commentators. Followed by changing the subject. As usual when Martins claims something

Valverde asked for a bike change from the neutral car. Not given one yet
