WoW. Did he pull that world champion wheel sucking maneuver again?

 

Not this time. Nibali was full of smiles thinking he won and out of nowhere Rui came up and passed and then the sprint broke Nibali's spirit

Great stage, lots of action.

I can't remember seeing a race like this where the GC leaderboard has switched so wildly after every stage.

Becoming impossible to predict how it's going to end up on Sunday.

So I'm looking forward to seeing what tomorrow will bring - lots more switching for sure.

What superb racin'.

 

Nice to see so many teams in contention.

Nibs to defend this now,

It'll take some doing as today's effort will be in those pistons tomorrow.

Astana can do a quick oil change to keep those pistons going ;)

I think Nibs got his Pistons "oiled" good last night ;) .... He was left for dead yesterday. Some recovery!

Just like Aru in the Giro. This Astana "oil"

There are no fewer than five category 1 climbs on the agenda today, as well as the category 3 haul over the Col des Aravis. With yesterday's dramatic stage in the rain to Villard-de-Lans weighing on many legs this morning, we can surely expect further frissons at the head of the overall standings on the road towards Saint-Gervais.
