Roglic going to climb in the car soon? :(

Looks like it. At this rate, the time cut is also a concern.

With the race pace at this stage, Primož Roglič cannot recover well enough with his extensive abrasions, especially on the boom-boom, a hardworking contact point  What a class act, always stoic and humble.

Meanwhile, a truck is stuck on the Col de la Colombiére, according to ISN's osteopath who is ahead of the race on the final climb. ????

Maybe they should let Tim DeClercq and Tony Martin jump in a car and go ahead so they can pull the truck out the way? Looks like a big problem though

WVA attacks.... Drops everyone like they're under 7s. 

I wonder if he's just trying to get into yellow, or if in his heart he has GC ambitions.

This is the most work Pog has done all tour. 

He's looking lonely. And (surely) frustrated.

Trokkie sorted after some manoeuvring.

UAE not being able to control the bunch (and Alpecin in yellow not even trying) actually makes the race more exciting. If Ineos were in the lead, they would just put their train on the front and we wouldn't get to watch every man and their dog having a crack at getting away and then being brought back.

This kind of racing must be brutal for the riders, but it's great to watch

What a weird day. That was wild

It's the essential tempo pace now - 3 CAT 1 climbs coming up with little or no recovery time. Don't blink.

Plus wet descents!

No chance for composure today

Valverde in the front group....... I wouldn't put it past him to take the win today....

No.... evidently the team have other ideas!

Kuss or Quintana?
