Greipel will be led out by Roelandts and Sieberg today since Hansen and Henderson are both injured.

FDJ should just pull Pinot and let him train for the Vuelta. It's a shame he's still around as a broken man!

Some article on descending recently said Pinot was so nervous on the descents in 2013 that he lost five minutes to Froome on one stage, then the following day he was still so freaked out by the descent the day before he lost 25 minutes, and FDJ eventually had to send him racing a car so he could get used to speed again.

and i thought i hated my job

Perhaps it's better for Thibaut just to go home.

He can't do that as a french guy, beside this doesn't mean his climbing legs are bad.

Dropping on the Cherave is a good sign?

He said that after he witnessed Bonnet crashing that hard in the bunch crash his legs completely blocked.
The guy was simply shocked by the crash.

Hope the team won't make him watch hundred slasher movies after the Bonnet incident

After having shown he’s a good Paris-Roubaix rider, Nibali wants to win the sprint...
