5 days have passed and neither Gesink nor Mollema have crashed yet. I, for one, am impressed 
+1
Hope one of them can get on the podium. 
Pozzato sucks!

Martijn MAASKANT (097), Joost VAN LEIJEN (138), Kristof VANDEWALLE (149), Pieter WEENING (159) and Thomas DE GENDT (211) in the breakaway! 
+/- 3.30min advantage atm.

Does anyone have information on how hard the final climb is? Percentage-wise it doesn't look that difficult, but I was wondering if there are any steep parts?

It's long enough for Contador to have a shot, imo.

Valverde or RodrÃguez for the stage? I say Valv, but it's 50/50
