    I've not seen a huge amount of the race & it has been on a while so easy to forget things but of the top 3, is Bardet the only one to have attacked at any stage in the race so far? I know Uran has won in a sprint but that's not what I'd call an attack.

    . . . Come to think of it Froome put in a bit of a dig the stage after Dan led up the final climb after Kwiatkowski dropped back but that'd hardly count as a meaningful effort.

    Contador today probably put in the most meaningful effort of the tour in terms of GC, dirty/suspicious past or not he's still super fun to watch. Couldn't in good conscience cheer for him to win over all but still enjoy watching him when he has days like today.

    Glad Matthews put in the effort to challenge for green he did, otherwise it would have been a much shallower victory for green with Kittel going out.

    My excuse is not watching it live and avoiding the thread till vowing time, saw the betting shop was still open I wagered my bet :D
    It's not often the bet is taken after the line...

    Dahat is the winner though...by €330!

    Has anyone ever seen Yates leading a group??

    Does he ever put his wheel ahead of anyone? He spends every stage in the wheels, and is never at the front of a group!
    He just sucks all day , sneaky, and just not nice to watch !!!
    Thank god for AG2R and Sunweb + Martin to keep some attacking alive

    Its a pity Martin, Barguil, Bardet and Aru didnt just decide ... Right lets all keep attacking the SlyBots until froome cracks...... He is getting it (relatively) easy....
