Nice Purito! nice!

Good to see Mollema again after his dissapointing stage yesterday. Looking more and more that he's getting good at long hilly stages...

Froome looked a little bit dead at the finish for the first time

He was obviously thinking more about the leader's jersey than bonus seconds, so he burnt himself pulling the group on to put more time into Kwaitkowski. Pretty smart I think.

Any idea what happened? Just bad?

He blew up. That's what he said.
The Sky train did his work and when Mollema can't follow early in the climb he won't try either.

Nibs really can't do this kind of finishes.

yeah always like that :(

purito dominant as usual on this kind of finishes. Mollema probably took it easy yesterday after seeing he was dropped. He's very good in hilly stages indeed.
