Is it too early/flat for ThiboPinot going for the stage hunt?

He wants the Polka dot jersey, so he'll to wait until Sunday when the route contains half of the HC climbs on the whole parcours. He's already 10 minutes down, so almost everyone except Barguil will let him go.
Yep
 
Weird coding error on the live pages at letour.com, whereby riders each have 1 2/3 flags by their names: Dutch riders appear to be dual Papua New Guinea nationals, Sepulveda looks to be half Bosnian, and Belgian riders apparently all have close connection with Cambodia.

Anyone knows what Sunweb tactic might be? 3 of their riders are single handedly pulling the break right now.


They have Matthews in the group they are trying to get him to the intermediate sprint and making it as difficult as possible for Demare and Kittel to make the time cut.
