Let's be honest no-one is going to have to work that hard to pull this break back. A chase by commitee will survice - always a danger they *** it up but I still think we're on for an uphill sprint in 3hrs time...

Yeah, it looks like they have it under control now. Gap is down to 7'16 and the break is not very strong.

About Costa, from the live feed
Lampre-Merida's directeur sportif Philippe Mauduit spoke to letour.com this morning before the start. “Rui Costa still suffers from bruises but he's getting better every day. We hope for the pain to disappear today. But today's stage finale doesn't suit him really, it's for sprinters. The uphill at the end is very short. A punchy sprinter will overcome it. It's a typical finish for Degenkolb, Sagan… Mûr-de-Bretagne will be better for Rui. Our chances in a sprint finish are with [Paris-Nice stage winner] Davide Cimolai. Our best sprinter [Sacha Modolo] has done the Giro. We can't perform in every domain all year long. Davide is fast but we don't have a train to lead him out. However, he's smart, so if circumstances are favorable, he might profit from them. The strength of our squad is that many riders can win a stage.”

The official tdf website says that the advantage became 40 seconds smaller in the last four minutes, WTF :eek:

I don't get it, why is that special?

What is a bot ?, break coming down.
lol got a mirror handy? The term started in 2012 when the robotic Sky train dominated (some would say ruined) the tour.
Come on Sagan time to shine.

Haha, yeah, ruined what for decades has been famously the dirtiest and most cheat-ridden sport in the world because of their tactics did they?
