Kwiatkowski at 33:1 on the Mur tomorrow seems absurdly free

Where did you find the 33:1? Best i could find is a 26:1, which still is ok.

So many good bets out there. Bardet for 151:1, Quintana getting up to 67:1, Dege vs.Kristoff at 2.25:1.

Pretty excited for this stage.

Mur is more than enough serious business that it will provide some indicators.

Everyone will not be able to follow everyone even when talking GC favorites.

Meh i'm not as optimistic. Tour favorites usually tend to be conservative early and the Mur is fairly short after all. I think we may see one or two favorites showing they got good legs but I don't really expect too much to happen among the favorites.

My money is on Rodriguez today

Am i the only one thinking cav is a big douchebag?

Tony martin is in front of the peloton every day racing for cavendish since so much time and Cav thanks him by stopping his effort without defending the 3rd place
If he hadnt stopped his effort martin would be in yellow today. Great way to reward the guy that is chasing breakaway every day

Only Sky thinking it's nuts. Quintana, Movistar want to stop. Some are heavy wounded.

Otoh Sky might remember last year when Froom was down, and the peloton continued.

Jesus christ.

Makes no sense they stopped the race though how do they justify it and how are they going to consistent throughout the tour?

Afaik Astana didn't want to ride only Sky

Astana and Movistar are probably angry that the race wasn't stopped yesterday when they got caught behind crashes.

I'm not sure what Prudhomme is waiting for or wants to happen here. He can't stop the race every time there's a crash. Especially tomorrow on the cobbles.

Race stopped because the medical stuff is held up at the crash behind.

Prudhomme did not make the decision I'm told.

There is a ****ing good reason the course is stopped. There are ambulances on the road for those who are heavily wounded. They need to get to the victims.

No, dont think he can gain 30 secs on martin. Even 20 and a win look really optimistic imo

Looks like Pinot is trapped in the 2nd bunch. Amazing how the frenchies never seem to get it right
