    Froome back on, fair play that was hard, lucky its the final climb of the day or he would pay dearly.

    Extraordinary from Froome. He has made up 45 secs in no time on a hard climb.

    Have to say I'm not a fan of the booing , if that was Voeckler he'd have stopped to give out and get them to apologise :D

    Savage effort froome, the booing is disappointing.
    Great stage though I'm like a pig in poo.

    Bardet should have attacked as soon as froome got back...not waited and let him settle in

    I don't think he was able to.

    That was probably the time to put Froome under pressure.... If they couldn't work together and muster anything when he was the guts of a minute behind then it's probably not going to happen.

    He is really so poor tactically. Going off on his own with a head wind. Froome not even interested.

    Trying to get the seconds to slip into 5th ahead of Landa.

    He'd be better to save his energy. Unless he can make it stick he is wasting his time.

    If he is feeling ok may as well go for it. Running out of stages and a rest today tomorrow.

    Dan could move up to 5th place here.

    Allowing for his injuries, lack of team support in the mountains, the aggression of his racing, I think Dan could seriously claim to be the man of the race.

    Pity the lads behind don't treat it as Sky vs the rest, & don't help chase down whoever gets out of the pack.

    Brilliant move if you ask me. Nothing ventured nothing gained. At least he isn't like TeeJay Van G. Just sits there and waits for others to hopefully falter.

    Excellent from Dan, 37 odd seconds from the last 2 days over some of his rivals, opportunist and gutsy!
