Much respect to Cuddles. Oh look Sanchez! I wonder if he can ride across the gap before the hit over the top.

Contador doesn't want to drop him yet. Will he attack on the descent and try to drop Andy with Costa?

Remember it's dry and pretty warm, Andy isn't to horrible on the descent in these conditions, not great but he's not horrid.

Samuel Sanchez trying to gap the break, if he makes it to the front that could be big.

Voeckler gone, Fränk not looking great either though.

Edit: Fränk does get back though.

Edit2: Rolland will win the white jersey now that he can ride his own race.

My gut original told me Evans blew and faked a mechanical to save face. Evans's performance now tells me my gut was wrong.

We has indeed in trouble, probably bonked a bit, he had a lot of help throughout the valley while AC and AS ate a lot of wind, now he is rested and has crawled some time back and has no other choice but to try to bridge the gap as much as he cans or he loses the race.

Now he attacks and Voeckler is gone!!!

Samu could bridge on the descent. Evans missed a trick there, he should have grabbed the wheel and HERE HE GOES!
