kristof with the main group. i think

Dont think so, was dropped like a half hour ago. Though I do not think his in the group with Kittel. Probably 3-4 minutes behind the peloton. And I think Cav is behind the Kittel group.

At this point it doesn't matter how many support riders got dropped. There is no incentive to stay in the peloton. The gc guys only need 1 or 2 guys with them with a long decent and only a small bump at the end. They can just save energy for another day.

Also, many might still be under the effect of crashes from yesterday

First real test of the teams isn't until stage 8 (for climbing at least)
