This one too, althought fascinating for entirely different reasons.

Both are from today's stage.
Both are excellent!
PhilGils tattoo rainbow bands do look rather cool on him...
Didn't realise Didi was back. I've not seen any shots of him in the highlights.
Any chance that this was sky's plan all along, knowing his form wasn't quite there so using Froome as a distraction tactic to support Thomas, while also being as backup in case of a melt down or crash?
Not really, otherwise Bernal would’ve followed G
Didi has never been away, I read ASO were concerned he was getting too famous so they made a decision not to film him.
Didi was sponsored by Wiggle I think for a year or so, so ASO made sure not to film him to avoid free publicity.
He was also ill that year he was sponsored. It was not a great arrangement and I think he had to have surgery effectively missing the tour.
Nice to see him in that picture. Really great shot.
