Froome going backwards. His form is far behind to where it needs to be right now. It doesn't even look like he is progressing race by race.

Edit:
And this time he looked like he went deep trying to stay with the peloton. No that waving to the camera or talking to another rider bullshitt

I agree, he was better in UAE. And it was similar last year, he was pretty good in Occitanie, but by the time the Dauphine came round he was dropped a lot earlier.

Interesting situation. Movistar has been drilling it for quite some time now, only one teammate with Mas/Soler/Valverde so I'm not sure they can control the race for almost 30 km once they stop descending.
Who else might be interested in a sprint? Venturini is gone. I think Kanter is gone too. Perhaps BikeExchange for Dion Smith (he was at the back of the peloton a few minutes ago). Is Impey in the peloton?

Looks good for an attack in the final 10 km by someone like Lulu.

What is INEOS up to with Martinez btw? So far just 1 race, the UAE Tour, serving as mountain leadout for Adam Yates.
There's a TT in this race, would've been very interesting for him to battle the GC.

Israel might win this, I imagine Impey will still be there.
