God, I really wouldn't want to be Démare right now. Poor guy :/
Suprisingly weak though. Normally he is a better climber than Kittel.. Now he dropped even before Groenewegen

Is he ill?
Last I heard he had a bad night a few days ago in a room without air conditioning. I believe someone said above he's had stomach issues.

I love this. Really don't understand why the Belgian and Dutch tv only start broadcasting in half an hour while broadcasting the whole sprint stage last sunday.

Unless peloton really slows down (possible if Team Sky has to make pace) there is no coming back for those who have been left behind.

Sky are not against getting some one in the break here. I predict Froome to abush the group on the final climb!

Looks like its over now,,,
Still plenty of attacks
Yeah, said that too soon, eh?
:lol: :lol:
PS: Demare and Rowe are done. Already 5 mins down

What would be the time cut off calculation ?
So, it would depend on the stages coefficient..
I think this is a Coefficient 3 stage(Short stages with uneven terrain)
So, it will be:
10% of the winners time if average is less than 35
11% if between 35-36

I think you can extrapolate further

should orica let kreziguer ride. Ig he gets the leader jersey he could last long, and sky might not care if he goes in the break.
