Criterium du Dauphine 2017 - **official thread

Going on the updated split I put Dan's group 1 minute up on Porte and Froome?

Surely Eurosport could have put this on ahead of the tour of Switzerland.

Was that contador that just waved him on ?

froomes gone like a bat outa hell. hope this isnt a sign of things to come in july or we could be in for a boring 3 weeks

Dan 3rd over all on the road.

Lil King Richie's reign lasted all of 3 days, Sad!

Froome / martin /Contador group are frustratingly disorganised and not pushing home advantage they have over Porte.

edit..Froome has got one of his teamates burrowing himself on front of that group now. advantage over Porte increasing i think. 2km to climb

neris

thats coz froome has kwiatovski on the front and keeping it steady and controlled

They can actually see Valverde and Aru , time must be wrong there.

Is there time bonuses for the top finishers on todays stage?

Fuslang is only a few seconds off froome so has a chance too today. Surely the front group will start attacking each other!

I meant from the other gc riders so they'd move up a few places....
