Almeida and Würtz crashed.
Danish commentators making me a bit worried by talking about "Mads"...

I'm always wondering if a single second is really worth the effort in a three week race. Like, we always hear how important it is to conserve as much energy as possible and never make a single needless effort, but then they are sprinting for such small gains.

Arkea really burrying themselves to bring Barguil back when no one outside of Arkea gives a dime for his GC chances.

Just save yourself and go in the break tomorrow instead.

1 second not so much, but gaining 3 every time you kinda force your opponents hand to take the 2 seconds or contest. Potentially a swing of 6 seconds.

Ok no idea why Jayco is going so hard right now when Groves has like 3 teammates behind them.

aren't they working for Dekker? Barguil didn't plan to go for GC anyway, at least (according to what he said)
