“We’ve been up the climb in recon,” Sky mechanic Gary Blem said. “It depends in the race. He uses 38 and 30 in a stage with peaks of 15 per cent, but on the day to Zoncolan, he prefers a 32 on the rear and a 34 on the front just to spin the legs a little more.

Froome is coming back to the Dumoulin group. Apparently someone fell and split the group on the descent. I can't see Poels at all so I assume it was him.

Must feel incredible, attacking at 17km with some semi-rolling sections before the next climb where the group should have an advantage.

I think you'll find he had that excellent descent win on that one tour stage. On Roads he rides all winter so knew like the back of his hand.
