I like to think he's a proper australian and sledging him too.

Can Porte do anything to Contador or is he just getting a free tow?

Not yet he hasn't - Rodriguez needs 47s

Piss him off big time just by sitting there. It's psychological more than anything.

Genuinely wondering what Froome will do - allow Quintana to get the KOM and White or will he go for Yellow and KOM?

I can't believe Froome will gift the stage/KOM - it comes down to who is stronger. Which is good.

I believe it also slows them down very slightly but the effect must be mainly psychological

Realised the ideal finish is Rodriguez, Quintana, Froome. That would put Quintana 1 point ahead in KOM. 2 cat 4 climbs tomorrow ๐Ÿ˜‰

Having seen some of the decisions from Movistar I reckon Valverde will help to tow Contador back up...

I don't, Contador is 1'17" down, not sure he'll come close to Valverde!

"it also slows them down very slightly"

In fact it takes the wake drag of the lead rider so pushes rather than sucks them, but maybe not at this speed.

Froome's still got enough energy to hit an annoying spectator.

2.5km to go - Rodiguez, Quintana and Froome 1'30ish ahead of Contador, Porte and ??

Froome just shoves a running spectator. Rodrigues has been out front and looking tired. Quintana and Froome on his wheel looking ok. They got a good gap. Ligget says Froome is tired. He has has been unusually out the saddle and dropping his head.

Sprint finish between yellow and white for KOM - can't get better.

I have to admit I almost feel sorry for Bertie - he's seemed much more human and likeable this year.

Hope he goes for it

This is nailbiting!
How much longer can they hold it off before the attacks?

2k rodriguess won't jump 20 seconds in Quintana now. Quintana is so impassive whole Froome rides really ugly. Who's got the jump?

Froome jump here comes Quintana!

Would have liked to see Froome in KOM - but Quintana will certainly deserve it.

Was kind of hoping Froome might celebrate a bit more - does he feel he's lost a jersey rather than winning one?
