I think he got caught up and is also behind.

Porte is going to need some serious marginal gains to win now.

Contador 39 behind Modolo, was Aru in the front group?
Also, why on earth are the norwegian Eurosport-commentators asking wether or not they will stick to the 3km-rule or if they'll "increase" it today? Why should they bend their own rules on arbitrary cases?
If they are so worried about the GC, then screw the rules all together, just let each case be decided on its own basis.
Also; hell of a sprint from Modolo, there wasn't a single inch of road that he didn't cover in that sprint.

They were pretty black and white with Porte's mechanical, so he and Contador should both lose time. I think it gives Aru a good buffer heading into the ITT tomorrow, he can now comfortably lose time.

Contador just showed Porte how it's done. Immediately ask for his teammate's bike!

And obviously, Cannondale-Garmin and Jumbo NL causing the chrash...
Oh well, Porte is screwed now. Contador should feel fine not for losing more time and getting injured (?) cause it could have been much worse.

yep this was good reaction..bad that team mate was way down on that group.
Also Porte had teammate bike..but it was way to big for him..he was no able to use saddle.
I like when italians winning Giro stages..

This top 3 is not legit obviously. Bertie arrived on someone elses bike so he will be displayed in the results as "Matteo Tosatto"

So Contador 3rd a minute and a bit down. (It says Kreuziger, but I'm guessing he took Roman's bike).
Australian commentators are so disappointed,

This is Italy. What's the italian version of "laissez-faire"?
