Re:

Adam has to go on Velefique surely?

Haig should work on Velefique. Then Simon at the beginning of the final climb. Adam won't work at all, he is riding for GC. Maybe he attacks at some point, but i doubt it.

Rain has eased up a lot

Re:

Orica is smashing the break. Yates brothers have to kill the first climb

Hopefully the plan is isolate Froome early, otherwise giving the bot-train a ride into the mountains may backfire.

Pretty wet for a dry countryside

Re:

You'd think so as they're chasing. I really really hope so because it's about the best chance anyone has of cracking Froome.

 

[Rollthedice]

Nibs is already alone.

Bye bye peloton. Orica is killing it. Well done

Froome with only 1 guy left?

 

[Eagle]

Only 1 team mate with froome?

Edit: Nope

[Climbing]

Actually Nibali still has 2 teammates.

Simon Yates goes. Sky will reel him in on pace alone.
