Astana DS is idiot. Now is the time to ride against Froome. Enough of the Tour is left to take on Bardet later.

Aru is racing as much for the podium as the win.
A shame, but true.

3 idiots and a yellow jersey...

So the riders with Froome should just let Bardet go and give up on any chance for a stage win themselves?

But its about making Froome not win yellow, its not about their personal goals. Dont be silly

It would be funny if they caught Bardet and Aru escapes for a win!

ITV4 commentator just called Bardet's attack a long range one

Nowadays, every attack done farther than 2/3 kms from the finish line is a long range one.

Will be interesting to see what they do when they catch Bardet. Will anyone really try to push on to put Quintana and Martin out of the GC picture?

As much as I dislike Richie, really hope he will get well.
Yes, yes, yes!
I explicitly want to sign that statement. Port's life and health is so much more important than any sportive antipathy right now. Hopefully his spine ain't seriously injured. It looked really worrying.
