In case anyone is still look for TV data, The menu on DSTV app seems to be updated and indicated the TdF will be broadcast on 201/206. Timing differ a little per day, see below:

Tues 13.15

Wed 13.00

Thurs 11.50

Fri 13.15

As we've had coverage from the start of each stage for a few years now, times will vary depending on the start time of the stage and what kind of stage it is..

 

Enjoy everybody

It is conceiveable that Pogacar can be in Yellow tonight if Yates and JA can't stick with the main contenders up the final climb today.

 

Will most likely come down to whoever takes the Bonus seconds on the line and whether or not it is a Breakaway rider/s further down the classification that gobbles it up.

Scratch that idea.

 

I see the Uphill finish today is just a CAT 1 because it is at the end of the stage.

 

The Col d'Eze on Stage 2 was the same gradient and distance, yet classified as CAT 2(7km at 6%).

 

JA will be in yellow again tonight.

And he could even extend his lead today while the rest of the GC riders watch each other

I love these uphill finishes - any tech wrinkle makes things so much more vital - it's like a game of chess in slow-motion.

based on how well JA did last year, even in the TT (admittedly, it's an uphill one this year), the would be well advised to not watch him from too far away.

Nope.. no threat to the green jersey up the road...they've already let them go... this is disappointing [emoji53] Edited by Gen

Works in Sagan's favour to have a group up the road to mop up the points. He keeps green, and his opponents don't score either.

Big counter attack from the peloton seems to be shut down. Block across the road now to calm things down.

 

Tiesj Benoot could go a long way today in the break...
