Tomorrow could be a good day to get Roglic back on the podium and finish Tadej.

jonas will be best placed even though he had to go deep he wasn’t over the limit. UAE will need to control tomorrow but I don’t see it happening. Jumbo look strong and well drilled after their game of musical bikes last week

edit: Roglic came in at a pedestrian 10min behind so is now 13min back. Looks like he’s GC ambition for tdf podium 2022 is over.

that was a pretty special stage. watching Rog and Kuss come in with big smiles, knowing they have a job tomorrow. Reckon it'll be a regroup cos everyone's gonna be poked when they wake up.

First really bad day, in more than 50 stages for Pog; not a bad return. For the neutral this was a good finale.

We've seen Wout's face, here was Majka's.

Lance not looking so good anymore 

Turns out he's human after all.!

Looking forward to tomorrow.

Gonna take a big effort to turn this one back in his favour especially since it seems Jumbo have the superior team.

for added fun, play Carlton-Kirby-bingo each time he mentions the final time trial when there's more than a week to go...

Just watched the stage with the DSTv function of having 2 hrs "back-up".  I cannot remember such a stunning stage for ages.  The next week and a half is going to be INTENSE.  The Pog will not give up.

Will a French rider be able to step up tomorrow and claim a momentous win on Bastille day on top of the iconic Alp D'Huez?!

It has the makings of a cracking few hours

I see Louis is sitting at 16th, a minute after Barguil, and a minute ahead of Jungels.

Disc brakes, electronic shifting AND tubeless on the road?!

It's a miracle he can even go forward!!!!

If you haven't been in them high mountains, it's impossible to understand how mighty they are and how little we humans are. Racing up there, nee jong, leave that to whose job it is to VAM well. I'll stick to my profession.

I think the heat might be his kriptonite, lots of sweat marks on his bib.

But I have new respect for him after listening to his post race interview today. Love his attitude.
