Expected more from a stage like this, but shouldnt be..

would have been 15-20 minute-breakaway, if there wasnt a team GC for Saxo.

Congrats to Costa..

God I hate the long luxurious shots of mostly French guys coming in 11th and 12th when the GC guys aren't done.

Not like we are gonna miss much, but you never know.

I think you have to get some perspective. Non of the main guys had a good reason to attack today, it just wouldn't have made sense. I can guarantee you right now that both Nairo and Purito will attack tomorrow on the last mountain.

Disappointing stage from a GC perspective, very disappointing. Rolland's was the sole entertaining ride of the day.

And earlier when the only interesting think was the break we had boring shots of Geraint Thomas leading the peloton.

I dont know why we'd expect fireworks.

Because the parcours were extremely hard, probably the hardest of the Tour, even if it wasn't an MTF. If it wasn't a day between 2 MTFs, there would have been some fireworks IMO.
