Great stage today, one of the best of the year in Grand Tours. Evenepoel showed the ceptics that his Tour of Norway climbing performance wasn't a fluke and demolished the field with a very good from Alaphilippe who seems to be coming into shape in the right moment. Let's see if he can avoid bad days but right now things are looking really good at least for the podium. Mas once again doing a great jod, the only one capable of staying with Evenepoel and despite the TT he has experience on his side. Ayuso doing a very good climb too, he lost a but in the final part but I am starting to think that he can do a similar thing to what Pogacar did 3 years ago and I expect Almeida to get better as the race goes on. Roglic clearly didn't had a good day but being just 1 minute behind Remco he is still a threat for the win while Carapaz has to be the disappontment of the day even if Ineos still has three leaders so maybe they can sneak one of them into the podium.
Finally a word about Jay Vine, he won this stage attacking from the GC group and apart from Evenepoel and Mas, he gained a lot of time on everyone so a mighty performance from him.
