I think anyone with Goss will be scoring 0 for that finish. That was shocking, He moved over and then back again

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, I needed one of 3 men to win the stage so a 3/5 chance and what happens.....they all get dropped by the 2 I don't want to win. Only for the fantasy game.

Otherwise I want to see Millar win

EBH at the front. Will he try and win what's left of the sprint?

It was a bit stupid wasn't it? I've just had it on while I play around with my team for the next couple of stages. Still it should liven up a bit now. Maybe. Was hoping Liq might chase but too concerned about podium for Nibali and Sagan will win Green in any case. There's no HTC anymore, who I'm sure would have chased.

Anyone still tuned in?? I turned off ages ago, The commentators have nothing left to speak about so talking shit. WHY oh WHY choose to show this as a FULL stage when they knew what was going to happen, a gentle roll along.....boring

5 points for Impey. Wow!

Break is going to stay away. Liq seem to have no interest yet.

Sagan
Wiggins
Chavenel (also not knowing he is on antibiotics otherwise would of been Goss)
Kessiakoff
Vichot
Izagiire
Pinot
Impey
Martinez

Unfortunately the team ahead of me in the standings has Sagan & Goss

I have Sagan & Martinez, need Martinez to score 30 points more than Goss today, to get that spot.

they're not bringing this back. 11 minutes out with 72km left?

hope not, anyway. i gots me gautier. and martinez

Wouldn't be surprised if Liq bring this back for a Sagan win. Gilbert could have a go as well, especially as Evans is a bit out of it now.

So the break has over 11 minutes now, They are offski. I'm hoping for a bonus 5 from them, So Europcar, Euski or Astana win

Wiggo goes on the break

I went with the following

Gilbert(in for Wiggins)
Sagan(in for Froome)
Chavanel(in for Tejay)-didn't realise he was on antibiotics
Zubeldia
Edet-at least he's finally in a break
Pinot
Izagiire
Vichot
Iglinsky

Pinot's gone out the back

The peloton is 2'05" behind the 12 stage leaders. In between are six men: Feillu, Voigt, Kashesckin, Levarlet, Kern and Roy - at 1'45".

I dont see the break winning today. They've only be given 2 minutes max.....

I decided today was too difficult to predict so brought in Sagan for tomorrow (although he could still pick up some points today if he leads the bunch home behind the break, unless it stays this big - long way to go...)

Bouet in the break for me, have a good feeling about him getting top six if the break stays so fingers crossed...

The front group is: Popovych (RNT), Guatier (EUC), Koren (LIQ), Millar (GRS), Peraud (ALM), Bouet (ALM), Edet (COF), Gusev (KAT), Vorganov (KAT), N. Sorensen (STB) and Kiserlovski (AST).

At 1'00" is: Horner (RNT), Perez (EUS) and Martinez (EUS).

The peloton is at 1'45".

NO breaker's for me today

Damn! DOS just called and some teacher hasn't turned up so got to go and do one lesson. Be back this afternoon to see how it all develops.

Only 1' 4" at the mo. Might be brought back. Got no-one in it so I'm hoping it is. Glad this stage is all on live as it's the first chance I've had to see anything live, but I've got a day off after doing jury service the rest of the week.

Not a great team unless I get one or two in a break. Got 3 transfers for tomorrow.
