Sorry had to correct that

Wonder what they were alluding to? Seems rather random for Tour coverage

Within the breakaway, Zakarin definitely has the quality to win this stage

Pinot's back seems to be the problem. i can't recall but did he say he hurt his back when falling during the first stage?

eeeee

Do EF Education have the yellow Jersey? How'd that happen? I thought Yates was in yellow still.

Columbian national chaps kit. It's magnificent

Pinot lost another 30 seconds there in only a couple of minutes. Not looking good at all

Ah yes, someone rode into him when he fell. He said he was worried about it for the coming days. Yesterdays efforts would have exacerbated his injury.

Poor guy... has the ability to win the Tour but needs that bit of luck.

Ah that'd explain it. It's class.
They're riding with yellow numbers too, I got confused

Heart in mouth stuff!

Bernal only had one man left. WvA is something else.

Van Aert is amazing. The guy won a sprint stage yeasterday and now he's dropping pure climbers on an HC climb.

Reminds me of my 6 year old going down a hill dragging her feet off the ground

Wasn't it kwiakovski that happened to at that corner 2 years ago ?

Is that Dumoulin pulling now at the front? Thought he'd be protected longer...

Alaphilippe WTF

eeeee

'Podge agusta Rodge' from TG4 for Roglic and Pogacar :pac:

Peters has this in the bag because there is no way Zakarin is going to catch him on the descent :pac:

There are a lot more spectators wearing masks than I thought there would be

They're all on top of each other though, and the finish line wasn't much better. It's possibly partly compression from whatever lens is being used, but still! Pretty sure today's stage is in one of the zones rouges as well

Cracking stage though

What happened to carapaz? He was up with the YJ group and then I heard nothing

He was riding for Bernal on the front bringing the group back after one of the attacks.
