Has Martin got a time punishment? On stage 1 and 2 he finished in the first group. Yesterday he lost 40 seconds. However now he's a full minute down in the GC. Can someone explain this?

I think he got a 20s penalty for holding onto a bottle too long

Thanks. I don't speak Spanish. Why was he punished? Drafting a team car/ out of the window repair?

Edit: Already explained.

triple penalty. 1 for not obeying the commissars(sp?) and 2 for drafting the team car.
