Btw, we will have live images of Montevernier for sure.
Live coverage will start in 50'. They are 31km from it. I doubt we'll see it.

My time table says ES will go live in less than 20 minutes. Chances my provider got it all wrong again.

They've only just crossed the line in Le Mans though, I can't imagine they'll go straight to the Dauphiné from that, there's going to be some fallout, and 50 mins from the post above would make sense (allow for 45' post-24h for the victory lap, interviews, podium presentations etc.). With most races 15-20 minutes would work but this is a complete one-off and by far the biggest (and best) day on the motorsport calendar (especially for Eurosport) which means they'll give more extensive post-race coverage and analysis than normal.

According to steephill, there won't be live images till 15:45 CET at the earliest

Makes total sense, thanks.

We're missing that climb. Cycling really doesn't help itself.

Pictures! Just caught the peloton finishing the climb. :rolleyes:

It looked nice for the ten seconds we got to see it.

I'm rooting for Der Panzerwagen, but Sky probably wants to catch them so Froome can get bonus seconds.

Lol, massive splits in the peloton, commentators have no idea what's going on

Really!? ES went to commercial break 1 minute after they started the coverage. Boy I swear... these TV's.

I see the last climb has a km close to 10 %, so I think Froome will drop Tejay and take the overall.
