Soften up the yellow jersey before Valverde aims to deliver the knock out punch.

Mentally, Sky obliterated a lot of hope yesterday.

 

Today, no matter the outcome, the other teams have smelt blood and their confidence will rise

A bit of a slip up from movistar by not gaining that much today apart from dropping Porte, but the alps should be good...

But who will take the stage? Fugslang?Valverde?Evans?

 

If they catch the 2 upfront, Evans will give the sprint 100%

Movistar got Valverde onto the virtual podium, so that's good enough for a day's work. However, I think it actually strengthens Sky, because now Porte will work solely for Froome rather than trying for 2nd.

The fact that it wasnt a mountain top finish could have had an influence. Too far to finish for a solo effort. Froome hamdled the attacks well

Mont Ventoux is where the magic will happen maybe - rodriguez/schleck/quintana/berto will rise to the occasion

Yesterday Sky killed themselves and they got yellow, Today Movistar did the same but did not get the result.

Sky were shown up as human. Froome shown he is strong enough to handle attacks from Valverde and Quintana on the day

Anybody from movistar deserves it

Awesome defending by Froome Dawg.

 

Today's post stage Sky meeting will make for interesting press.
