After today, Seixas still needs something to beat the big boys. For now, it's clear he will be on the podium in the TdF.
I dont think its clear. Lipowitz is his main contender for 3rd place in the Tour, and Lipowitz looks to be getting better during this stage race while Seixas doesnt look like a rider who can last 3 weeks.

Why is Lipowitz pulling while Roglic is trying to catch up?
If they don't stress Seixas they both end up in podium positions anyway. Cracking him, if that's possible; is the only way to gain time. He's shown tremendous response to attacks and should hold on to the end of the stage to either win it or get second.

Lipowitz' only chance is to let Roglic come back and attack two to one on the flat. Now he not only attacked to drop Roglic, he also makes sure Roglic can't come back.

They are down over 2 minutes.

They should be much more worried about securing their own podium spots than gaining time on Seixas.

Romo going after Uijtdebroeks' precious 7th place on GC, wait and see how long before the relationship is untenable and he needs to sign for somebody else again.

How can you know? His team just can really put the hurt on his rivals and so when he goes nobody is on the limit yet. That's part of the reason for the flatting out of performance.

I’ve felt for a while that people have overplayed how annoying Carlton Kirby is, but…he’s starting to BUG. 😂 Guy is consistently, aggressively, confidently…wrong…a lot!
