Enjoying the coverage and racing so far. OGE having another great start and if Chavez can hold the front group tomorrow, they might get the red jersey back again.
I don't think I've seen an interview or comment from Froome yet - nicely anonymous!
Good call, I think he suprised a few today when he went out front and stayed there.I don't think I've seen an interview or comment from Froome yet - nicely anonymous!
Dan Martin did well to bring the gap down to 5 seconds mind. Would have loved to see DM get a stage win. Shame his team aren't able to control the front of the race.
Just goes to show how important a good team is.
I'm thinking tomorrow some of the big Gc boys will show their hand. it's a summit finish.
I'd be interested to see how Chavez does in the big mountains. I think he will fall behind. Nonetheless he's had a lot of coverage thus far and 2 stage wins so a great tour regardless.
Just caught up on 3 days worth.
Sagan is a legend, thought he was going to spark the daft tt in the audi who was giving him lip after. I do understand the fine though, has to happen. If the uci do it right they can symbollically fine him, and repay the team to repay him. All faces saved.
Chavez instant fan fave, pity he finally cracked. Dumullan is simply awesome right now, great seeing someone bury themself and great to see an outsider do well. Don't expect it to last tho. Suprised to not see more from quintana and valverde, but there's 2 weeks more to go...

I would refuse to pay.
Millar said in one the broadcasts that riders don't actually pay them, they're just deducted from the prize money. Which isn't paid for a year anyway. Apparently they'd all sit around the dinner table comparing to see who got the highest, then forget all about them. Still, it's the inconsistency which gets me.
