Real shame.

Can majka stay away? We need the gap.

Oh geraint, why'd you have to do that?

He'd have been well up in contention for a silver with Nibali and Henao out of that front trio.

Majka can probably solo this now.
GVA to win the sprint out of this lot now.

Froome is probably thinking more about the TT.

G really is a crash magnet, can pretty much guarantee that he'll be off the road on 50% of descents.

Brilliant race, and a worthy winner in GVA, great performance from him staying with the climbers on a climb as long as that.

Watched in on Danish TV couldn't tell what the hell was going on without any splits on the screen. Pity about GT but nice race

Great race but there is some real hatred of Froome & any SKY riders on the streaming link that lightman posted up on page2?
I would say I'm ambivalent over SKY etc but the level of hatred is almost KKK EDL level!!!

Wow, I was shaking watching that. Shame for Majka, great race face with 2k to go - really giving it all.

Big shame for GT, could have been in with a shout there.

Congrats to the winner.

So disappointed for G, I was really hoping to see him win.

Amazing race, a proper 1 day race where almost anyone could win. Chuffed for GVA, felt like he raced very cleverly indeed.

Crazy end to the race, but GVA is a worthy winner.

FFS, Jill Douglas interviewing GVA in slow over-pronounced English-person-talking-to-foreigner. 🙄
GVA responds in perfect English.

Why was Steve left to do the long turn at the front by himself 😕 the spanish would have maintained the gap to the breakaway.
