Or Reichenbach's 18th place. Either way, it's a bit bizarre with such a potentially big stage for them tomorrow.

It will be hard to see past Kittel or Cav for today, with such a low pace. Having said that, I hope Sagan can play this well. It would be great to having him on a team willing to put chaos on stages like this.

Tinkoff should treat him like Cofidis treat Bouhanni. All of him, all year. Him or nothing.

Sagan transfer is confirmed (Bora). Let's see what they can do for him.

Whoever choses when to play adverts and segments on Eurosport needs to be fired.

Peloton ups the pace -> Yup time for a break .... ok ....

More like Reichenbach's 18th (yes, I know).

They're worried that if Reichenbach drops out of the top 20, then Carlton Kirby will have to stop talking nonsense about how he's a good outside bet to win every bike race ever. Even the ones in the past.

I don't know if anyone else already mentioned this, but on Danish television a while ago they mentioned that when Sagan had four days in a row without wearing a jersey this Tour, it's the first time ever he has gone this long in his Tour career without wearing a jersey. That's pretty impressive!

I've begun to watch on Danish Eurosport now, Thomas bay is top notch and Im getting more and more annoyed with Rolf Sorensen.

Pity I missed those stages, I bet he looked pretty well without wearing a jersey!

They should open a book called "Learn with Froome how it's done" and read carefully.
