Re:

Haven't really seen much of the Quickstep aggression that was promised.

They don't need to yet, the terrain is doing enough selecting for them. When they get to the final 20-30km they'll know who they have. 3 blue jerseys behind Sky on the front group right now.

Bahrain has 4 riders left in the group and not a single one is next to or in front of Nibali...

It's a good idea to be behind him. Minimizes the risks if they crash or puncture.

They won't bring him down, and they'll definitely notice if he stops, so they can stop too

Re:

GVA doing Froome's dirty work here. Disposing of Bardet and maybe a few others.
