It's to bad weather in the pyrenes to send live pictures
But at the more fun "news" is that the danish comentators, have made up a new Rabobank rider named Fesink
EDIT: now thay call him Resink

Oh well, our Dutch commentators invent new Danish names everyday, so don't worry. All the same  |

No, it isn't because of the bad weather, but at least you can watch live-updates here.

Astana is killing the peloton. Rubiera just signed off before the top of the climb, spent. Paulinho, then Kloden, then Leipheimer is the order of those left to decimate the peloton.
Then at the end, of course, Contador will attack
scary team

"16:20 CEST
Astana's Alberto Contador isn't too worried about today's stage, calling the final climb “not too hard”. He expects to see riders like Igor Anton, Damiano Cunego or Robert Gesink do well, and is curious as to what Alejandro Valverde, Carlos Sastre and even his own teammate Levi Leipheimer will do."

Meh. looks like we didn't miss much. everyone was afraid to attack due to the fog, so they kept together.
Ballan the new leader, Valverde loses time, everyone else finishes (almost) together.

Not a good ride by Gesink. He should have been in the Anton group. |
