'Dale Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 The road is heading uphill and the breakaway quartet are really shelling time here. The gap is down to below the two-minute mark - currently 1:45.
'Dale Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 Is there a favourite for the win today?Always Sagaaaan ????
Benjamin Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 Is there a favourite for the win today?Marcel Kittel
Mntboy Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 Is there a favourite for the win today?I am going with one of either Sagan or Alaphillipe. Both are just absolutely class racers and the finish does suit them.
'Dale Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 Gougeard drops off the back of the break. Is that intentional? It doesn't look like it as the Frenchman gets out of the saddle to try and get some more juice out of his legs. But his three companions are disappearing up the road...
'Dale Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 40km remaining now on stage 4 and the gap to the break has ducked below the minute-mark, with the speed really increasing in the bunch.
'Dale Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 Earlier, Sagan gets the intermediate sprint and moves closer to Cavendish in the points classification. Marcel Kttel got between the two.
'Dale Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 ???????????????????????? Sagan sped up to 58.6km/h to beat Kittel and Cavendish on the intermediate sprint. #TDFdata
'Dale Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 That's the end of Gougeard's outing. He'll be back in the peloton soon enough, and so might the other three as the bunch rapidly advances, even with over 35km still remaining.
BDF Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 Breakaway are flying at the moment! Do you think they have a chance?

'Dale Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016  29km remaining from 232km Less than 30km to go now and the peloton is now just 45 seconds behind
'Dale Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 Etixx-QuickStep's Julien Vermote leads the bunch along these sinuous and gently downhill roads. 30 seconds is the gap.
'Dale Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 There's the 20km to go banner, and Lotto Soudal's Lars Bak hits the front, once again working hard as the stage enters its final phase.
