Tour de France 2015

Westra in the break. You know Astana are planning something.

Is Cancellara the only person who looks better wearing a helmet than without one?

I dunno Clive. Send us a picture of you wearing a full face helmet and we can decide?

Lightning doesn't strike the same place twice.

It's too dry for major time gaps between the favourites today.

*feel free to quote this at will when I'm wrong later

Yeah, thanks French twat, you've just fucked up half the field and ruined all my bets.

Get well soon Gerrans(atric) and (L)Impey. Bling looking pretty battered as well.

Sparti(con)cus(ssed) out, Demolit(oulin) out.

Carnage.

Looked more like a Bora rider took out his front wheel.

Yeah, once again, thanks a fuckload wobbly friggin Frenchies

At least I've still got my Contador card to play.. just need him to cane Froome today and we're golden.

Yeah, he was the one bringing Sky back into contention after the crash and split. You know, to allow Froome to be in yellow today.

Yeah, Hendo looked pretty beaten up. He's iffy about completing today but said he will start.

No cameras on the team car towing him back?

Do they have trackers on the spare bikes? This often happens, even before this Dimension Data transponder bullshit.

He took a lot of convincing from his team. Not so smart if he ends up with permanent spinal damage.

Horrible. They way he had to grab onto the doc when trying to lie down. Urgh.

Well, obviously you slow down when you're scraping your face along the road..

The crash was a bigger deal than the finish. Some foreigner won the stage and some other foreigner is in yellow so not a big deal for English press.

not a big deal for English press.

Must be a big deal in Kenya, South Africa and Monaco though.

Has Froome ever visited England for longer than a week at a time?

Are itv not showing live footage?

Now I really have a reason to dislike him.

You know, to allow Froome to be in yellow today.

not till 1:30

What time is the stage estimated to finish today?

anyone got a working feed url for work?

cheers

"A Sporting View" -> "Time Schedule" tab

Cambrai: 17h10 (44kph) 17h24 (42kph) 17h40 (40kph)

(Times will be in Franceland).

Schedule for the Citadelle climb was "13h17 13h20 13h24" and the live feed says the leaders got there at 13h29, so on the slower side of things, but pace changes and they usually make it back up by the end.

Eurosport coverage ends at 16.45 so around then I'd guess unless they run it over schedule

ITV4, (Ch 24 on Freeview), now up & live.

Are Sky on their normal road bikes or those Paris-Roubaix specials?
