Coverage only just started for me: Is Alaphilippe in a solo break? After the turn he put in yesterday is impressive

e: ah it was an intermediate sprint.

Has a Tour winner ever been lantern rouge in Paris before?

Sam Bennett was lanterne rogue on his first appearance, and won the green jersey last year.

But no yellow Jersey winners.

Can't believe Dan Martin can do this with the descents.

Hopefully Alaphilippe can survive the climbs

The first descent off ventoux is apparently very easy, even Dan Martin should be able to handle it

Wiggins seemed to think he was looking perky. I can't see alaphillipe being out the front like this if they thought he at least had a good chance of making it through.

But yeh a bit worried here too.

Because of the classification of the stage it's actually easier than the stage into tignes, i think the cut off should be nearly 50 minutes if they race to schedule

I think Andorra is a bigger problem as far as getting dropped on an early climb is. The last few stages seem like ones where unless you get dropped the minute the road rises you can make it as a sprinter.

If Gaudu is ill on the first ascent, that's an almost certain DNF

Gaudu spewing his guts all over the road more than 10km from the top of the first summit is probably not a good sign for him getting to the end

They're already at Chalet Reynard? I know the first part of the first ascent is relatively "easy" but they're really putting some pace in.
