I reckon you can count the number of times Froome has actually been dropped by a group of GC favourites on the fingers of one hand. He has a unique approach to letting gaps open, then closing them gradually, which takes a lot of mental strength. He’s still very much in this race.
It also looks like we’ve got a cracking race on our hands, ten or so riders with a genuine chance of finishing on the podium.
His cycling ‘style’ is rather hard to read, he looks shattered, you think you dropped him, but nope, still there.
Yates and Chaves, what a ride though!
How did they let Chaves get in the break?!
