Would imagine the win was taken from chip timings rather than a photo in this case?

No, it was taken from 'enhanced' pictures - just been listening to them discussing it on the Cycling Podcast. Apparently Dimension Data have seen the pictures and are happy with the result.

At last, a stage that might be worth watching from the start to finish.

I see a few punditeers have it marked as a "Cummings" stage, I was thinking more a "climbers" stage with the potential for the GC lads still being there at the end with a few of the GC-distanced Frenchies. It'll be Steevo...

I've just watched the last few kms of yesterday's stage, FDJ got a wee bit ahead of themselves. If they'd waited another km before burning themselves out then they'd had done a splendid job for Demare; as it was they looked like a bunch of tits.

It's a tough one to call. It'll probably end up being a GC day.

I've just edited my punditry pick to stick in a GC rider as well as a couple of Frenchies.

Also, I have mostly been watching ITV coverage but just watched the Eurosport highlights from yesterday; I much prefer ITV, Edwards is a bit of a tit.
