Just wondering when Froomes gonna shoot off again.

He said he feels fresher than he was in 2013.

Contador struggling!

Bang, Contador goes

hendrix · 14 Jul 2015 at 15:45

Thomas and Porte for Froome still, incredible effort.

James07 · 14 Jul 2015 at 15:46

Froomes off!

Zoom zoom!

Wow what a turn of pace.

This is turning out to be a very exciting tour.

Let's see what Quintana can do

James07 · 14 Jul 2015 at 15:47

Its incredible how fast they can take off, that was insane!

hendrix · 14 Jul 2015 at 15:47

Quintana just going his pace, be interesting to see if Froome can keep this going. Great racing.

hendrix · 14 Jul 2015 at 15:50

Those time splits are crazy. Absolutely crazy. This won't help the tin foil hat wearer's...

Cosimo · 14 Jul 2015 at 15:50

Froome looking so strong!

James07 · 14 Jul 2015 at 15:50

Froome is in a different league, 5km to go and Contador is 2mins back.
It would be interesting to see Froomes average power over the last 15km.

Massive chunks of time being taken out of the other GC contenders. Brilliant riding!

Cosimo · 14 Jul 2015 at 15:52

4k to go and Quintana 35 seconds behind. He's destroying them.

It's great - I was expecting the usual team control of the peleton and narrow victorys here and there, instead Froome has come out attacking like the Maillot Jaune's of old. So good to watch.
