Kudos to Europcar, despite being, on paper, a second division pro team, those boys race better than most first divisio guys!

Bit of a shame they're riding to bring back Rolland right now though ;)

wonder what the secret was this year. Lim's obviously taken his rice cake recipe with him so cant be that.
Tommy D always had the talent in his legs, it was his head that kept him behind.

Sanchez pushing it on the flat! Now more attacks. Good God, there's still a huge climb ahead. Everyone is leaving everything on the road!

I think he could actually. I mean everyone here has to be exhausted. They are all going to be completely tanked from this. It's going to be a war of pure guts and attrition by the time they get to the finish.

& Bert's not lacking in that department.

Any news of Rojas & Cav?

We cant have that discussion here. But, look out for Alpe. He will play the guy "fighting-for-survival" with his other teammates around him, again.
Yeah, but he was never expected to do this. He was supposed to go for a stage win, and finish maybe an hour back.
