I'm surprised that Ineos isn't trying to get Carapaz closer to a safe overall podium. I would've thought that yesterday would have been a perfect chance. Ineos seems risk-averse right now. Sure, Taddy is comfortable with a 5.5 minute lead, his team is still well represented and unless something awful happens Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday, he should be safe till Paris. God knows he's riding like a grizzled 23-or even 24-year old veteran these days, and there have been no tactical missteps, but Ineos should at least put in an effort. I know they're pretty toothless after all the abuse they've taken this year, but there should at least be a flash of the past strength.

Certainly been an interesting TdF. Hard not to wonder what would might have been without the first stage carnage.

Glad to see Sepp win a stage. I'm super happy for Cav and I hope that Peter Sagan can see what Cav did after so many years in the weeds and that it's possible to come back and show us some of that old form again...
