    Sky were chasing but nobody
    Sky were chasing but nobody was helping them for almost the whole stage. they eventually reeled some time back in on the final climb, and I think all the GC teams started helping once they realised that Duarte was “virtual leader” and they were in danger of a serious fuckup.

    TBH there were only 6 riders in front of the GC group at the finish as most of the break, except the strong climbers, cracked on the climb, so I don’t think it can have affected people’s scores that much.

    Only 55 today, what the feck were they playing at letting a break of so many go clear, Sky not chasing down?

    What was the incline on the stage that Sutton won? By the way, where’d you get the 2% info from, fatcyclist? Is that a significant rise?

    Sagan and Kittel, got Quinziato as my ‘sprinter’ but he was in the break today. I did think about putting Haedo in….

    looks like everyone’s going for Sagan and Kittel, which I have to admit was my plan too, with Bennati, as Van Av did nothing for me earlier in the Vuelta and I’m tired of waiting for him to so something. Had Montaguti today, thinking about Lastras tomorrow. It suits him a bit. Need break guys to catch up with the leaders.

    same for me sticking with bennati and got sagan in and kittel and GC should stay the same so will have 5 in the top 10 on GC and then moreno’s mountain points (only 2 but still) if all goes well and then all is good

    Sticking with my pool, so Sagan in and Kittel in, and sticking with Van Ave because of the 2% incline at the end.

    70 for me, but I thought i’d cracked it. Tuned in to the cycling news text service, and much excitement about people in my team. The only thing is I didn’t know that Moncoutie and the rest of the breakaway had gotten there first. 3 mins before Wiggins etc. 😐

    Moncoutie was worth 30 points
    Moncoutie was worth 30 points today, J-Rod 17, Wiggo 18. Tomorrow is going to be an oddity, out on the coast with winding roads, but it’ll most likely come down to a sprint, albeit a slightly uphill one. If Moncoutie isn’t too tired he might go on a break to scoop up the mountain points he needs to take Blue – he’s only one point behind Montaguti!

    Friday looks terrifying.

    64 poor day 🙁 too many break away riders were left up the rode to pick up big points – hopefully it affects everyone.

    5 in the top 10 of GC, stage winner and a few minor placings, plus a few mountains points for Moncoutie. I had an add up and got 81 points, I may be wrong….

    Cracking ride by Froome
    Cracking ride by Froome reminiscent of Voeckler in yellow riding at the front.

    The game is still being updated so dont know about points but got 6 of top seven in GC at the end of the stage so should do quite canny. Decision now is do i change any 😕 😕 😕
