i missed the crash - how did cav and porte crash then ?
A mike gatting rush for cake
15:24 Porte and Cavendish in crashThe world champion has been caught up in a crash with team-mate Richie Porte in the feedzone. Both are standing again and Porte is waiting for a new bike from the team car.
not seen a replay yet. guessing feedzone carnage based on when it happended.
looks like porte is ok, and already back in the game. speedy recovery!
Cav really suffered yesterday according to his twitter (puking on himself), so a crash is going to make him feel really down.
liquigas and europecar leading out. all about to kick off surely.

the next 43km was never gonna be his finest hour.
head down and trudge to the finish for the manx midget.
Eurosport commentator David Harmon thinks that Brad Wiggins is not looking in top condition today, but his co-commentator Sean Kelly thinks the yellow jersey is bluffing and has tipped him for a possible stage win today
Interesting.....
typical of harmon and kelly to disagree.
tho kelly is something of a prophet in my eyes, so i'd err on his side...

I really hope your right! ๐
well for someone who should be feeling down he did a demon run to get back in to peloton then to the front and doing his stint for sky.
He is going to make a good classics rider i think !
i'm rarely right. but kelly is nearly always...
so who knows!
costa looking STRONG.
there's quite a bit of chat about it in online commentary, I expect one person said it to try and build a bit of excitement and all the others have just followed...
can anyone who's watching the telly see if he is looking tired?

not many shots of him so far tbh. he's behind the whole of liquigas, and the whole of sky, who are behind a break of 7, another break of 5, and the costa.
looks comfortable enough.
BBC man says he looks ok.
yeh but he was referring to chris hoy again.
i've changed my prediction anyway, this Francis lad looks to have it in the bag.
Allez, allez Ale!
What's his name just called the Peyragudes the Peyresourde.
Quick! Write to your MP! It's just offensive.
Dammit.. when I select 5 live sports extra on my phone I get cricket, not cycling.. ๐

Oops. Something I probably should know, I've ridden up it.
Majestic.
in fairness, i haven't...

Oddbins.
Watching Valverde descend is making me feel a bit car-sick.
valverde looking slow/tired.
voeckler to solo up for the win!
Nibali to attack, Froome to pull Wiggins and take the win... See Stage 7.

2 mins plus to make up on valverde. i'd rather see tommy v make that gap, and him get the win.
I like that Kesiakov (sp?) puts his gel wrappers back in his pocket, not seen that before!

I've been watching ITV4 coverage using the TVcatchup app, ace! ๐
that 2 minutes is going to disappear pretty quick any minute
think t.v. win is off the cards.
wrong way !
Polka dots in Paris for Tommy V then. Can't see Kessy getting away from the MJ group now they've caught him in the final climb.
Chapeau Tommy.
My money is on Valverde staying away for the win.
yeh tommy has done the work over the last two days eh? hero. points in the bag, now a chance to sit in and collect his spotty shirt.
Sorenson's hand looks a bit grim. If he had a white jersey he could make his own polka dots.
Sad to see Evans going backwards again.
That white skin suit is just making me feel generally a bit sick.
Would love to see Wiggins attack on the final 4km to the summit.
how's Valverde looking?
If Froome goes to the front, will his earpiece fall out?
I was just about to post:
he won't chance an attack
and wiggo starts dishing the pain!
