I hope so.
Last time this happened was at Tirreno. Froome completely blew a gasket. He ended up being tossed and gored.

Froome is so stuffed that he does not think, he want to dominate.
Great job by Garmin so far.

I quote Lewis Hamilton "I cant drive any slower" so in this case Skyborgs "can't ride any slower" |

Froome's gone full retard.
It's the well documented EPO effect: you feel invincible so you ride with no regard for tactics, you literaly feel as if the mountain is a flat road and you just want to crush everyone.
It'll be Froome's downfall eventually. Maybe not today, maybe not this year, but it will be eventually.

Garmin ripped the pack with three riders, Froome needed to close it all alone, Riders everywhere and Kennaugh crashed.

Garmin-Sharp with practically everyone, Tejay, Movistar, Rolland and a few others happened. Sky doesn't want to let them get away so they burning up matches at a rate of knots to catch everything. |

Sky a little too eager to exert their dominance. |

Sky is crazy closing on everyone, that is good. Only Morabito and Jeanneson with minimal gap. How many riders in peloton there, like 50?

Well, they won't get rid of Froome, but maybe Porte will have to work for him and he won't finish second anymore

Froome only with Porte, that is good.
But Saxo helped a bit, stop it!
