This descent looks amazing and frightening

Loved Ineos making it so hard that that dropped their leader. Didn’t get that when Froome was the main man.

Talking of which.

Made the break today so we actually saw him when tv coverage started. He ended up 82nd, 14:32 down on Bilbao, and moved up 4 places on GC to 94th.

Look forward to seeing him dropping back to the car to get bottles for ISN’s leader at the Tour.

Really hope he vlogged the breakaway.

Fellow hungarian (Attila Valter @ Groupama) with a sense of humour on insta with a pic from todays breakaway

So Pidcock likely to do LBL, which will be fun.

Too much hilly for him? I suppose he only weighs 59 kilos. And he’s won the baby Giro.

He'll be fine with the hills. Can't see him not being in the select group at the end of the race.

Decided to shit myself up by watching the Tour of the Alps highlights. Fuck. That. Descent.

I particularly freaked out at the knee height barriers on the side of the road, they would have done nothing to stop a rider hurtling off the side of the mountain.

Was Froomes bike handling always as bad or has he tragically lost it; his totally nerves when at the car?

It was bad then he got pretty good at descending.

I can only imagine what his crash must have done to his confidence.

73rd today, 10:13 back on Grosschartner. Finishes 93rd on GC.

Follow the Tour of Romandie next week for more #froomewatch entertainment.

Poor guy wouldn't even win the London to Brighton right now.

But what about his determination? Will power?

Power = Watts

Will Power = Whats

Froome's position looks quite different to before. Looks like a higher, more forward saddle.

It’s all on the vlog. Has no one else subscribed?

quite a heartwarming little video really, nice to see the riders interacting in the lull after the finish
