Vino gave Nibble notice apparently. Not so great for him

 

He will have to buy out his contract or come to an agreement, I think Nibbles contract is till end the 2016 season.

So so so cool that MTNQ is not just filling up hotels and spaces in the peloton.

They're making a solid impression on this World Tour event.

 

Sweeeet!!!!

The gap moves out to 5'52 while we have two chasers in between the break and the peloton. Froome back near the front of the peloton and riding just off Thomas and Porte, who is in the KOM jersey.

I can't watch or follow today guys. I need your constant updates. Dale gen tombeej etc pllllllsssss keep the updates coming.

Stannard has the peloton lined out with BMC and Movistar a little further back. We see Contador moving up near the front, and today is a huge day for him. If he loses yet more time today his overall challenge will surely be over.

Thanks, talented break.

On the front of the beak Fuglsang taps out a decent tempo that the rest of the break can all follow. There are a few passengers at the back of the move but we should see a selection of shorts on this climb, the Col de Portet-d'Aspet, with pitches between 6-9 per cent.

I reckon they could stay away if there's no significant headwind.

Yeah I agree, lets hope Sky also gives them some leadway.

MTN have done damn well. oddly enough they don't even operate in tunisia or eritrea, so it will be interesting to see how long they will keep fronting up $$$ for this.
