Tour de Romandie *spoilers*

Outside pick: Rigobero Uran. His team mate Tony Martin is becoming quite the wingman on the steep stuff and Alaphillippe (that surname looks like it has too many letters) had a great classics season. Uran isn't a bad tester either.

According to the official TdR website Sky is showing it live, but I've just looked at the listings and can't find it. Otherwise there is official i.e. pay-to-view coverage on cycling.tv and the usual internet streams.

Just spotted that Diego Ulissi is racing this one - after his "9 month" ban for positive test in last year's Giro. He might be another one to throw into the mix if it comes down to a gallop at the end; watch out to see if he is wheezing

Europcar mechanic just doored a Saxo rider and wandered up the road, leaving Securité to pick the rider up. That has to be a criminal offence, race or no race.

I couldn't see médecin on his jacket, though I think the French commentator said it was the doc. The car had Europcar on the side.

Yes, I think it was Kennaugh who turned up at the back of the race to get GT back on his way but he'd already done a great deal of work on the front. I didn't see where PK disappeared to but it then left GT on his own.

And as predicted, Albasini takes over in yellow, with Froome and co. poised just behind.

You are very good at this post-race prediction thing

And they beat my pick for the TTT into 2nd so Mr Bookie gets some money back from me

And I took it all back (with interest) again today

Tough call for tomorrow, I'll stick with Albasini but Nizzolo might trouble him.
