Bonus Posted July 9, 2018 Share 16:25:07 CESTAG2R La Mondiale pass a couple of riders from the UAE Team. They're getting a bit ragged, though, with just five riders left. Romain Bardet is hanging on the back as they hit the final kilometre. 16:24:21 CESTTeam LottoNL-Jumbo have lost 43 seconds at the intermediate. That's a lot of time lost for Steven Kruijswijk and Primoz Roglic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pure Savage Posted July 9, 2018 Share So it looks like Porte and Froome are back with the rest of the GC boys as Movistar and AG2r lose a minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyMartin Posted July 9, 2018 Share Had my doubts about the route this year bust it’s kind of taking shape. When we hit the hilly bits some GC guys are going to be some time back and will be forced to ride aggressively. That could make it very interesting.

Gen Posted July 9, 2018 Share Let is see if Nibali will be a real GC contender or going for stage wins [emoji39] Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirt Tracker Posted July 9, 2018 Share This TTT is a great addition in some ways as it's shaking the standings this early in the race with the cobbles still to come. Down side is it is putting a few favourites to the sword very early in the race. Quintana's race is going from bad to worse. Wonder what soundbite we will get from Landa today squeezing lemon into the Colombians GC paper cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonus Posted July 9, 2018 Share 16:31:12 CEST Team Sunweb pass through the first intermediate check 15 seconds slower than BMC Racing with a time of 14:28. BMC said that they went out slower to have the energy for the final section, can Sunweb make up time in the next section too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonus Posted July 9, 2018 Share 16:33:33 CEST Bahrain-Merida are out on course and taking on that early sharp rise. Vincenzo Nibali has been working on his time trialling and he will want to lose as little time as possible here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
