    Dan's gone on another dart, but closed down quickly. I can't see him getting away, unfortunately.

    Why are the other GC men not willing to deal the killer blow to aru?

    Dan needs to keep his energy if it's not distancing the others, they'll let him wear himself out and drop him

    Edit: He should really try go with Barguil, they'd have a serious chance then

    Where's Simon Yates? I presume Dan's taken the second or two out of him he needed at least to jump over him on GC.

    Landa looks like he could drop everyone just for the craic. He's like Riis on Hautacam 1996

    He's not far behind, hanging in there bravely to him his due credit.

    Looks it to me

    The way his back is hurting I imagine its hard for him to move about and get aero tuck going on the descent

    Dan can't be far behind. No more than 5 or 10 seconds I'd say

    Yeah, Sean seems to know where he is (with Yates) but he may get back ok.

    I'd love to see Dan Martins power outputs, seems to consistently be pushing on the front of groups

    Dan now seems to be hanging back at the back of the group, saving energy for a move? Or just bolloxed
