Sadly Fillipo Ganna is this year's first abandonment,I'm pretty sure he would have been a hopeful stage win for the individual TT later on this week.

I do a fantasy team on Velogames and I've already lost Philipsen from my squad....

That was quite a nasty looking crash.

I can't really see past Tadej for the overall win. He's got a good team around him to see him through the mountains. I hope however it doesn't become a boring procession.

A great stage yesterday and a fantastic ride from Healy. However I'm sure Pog will be back in yellow by tea time and probably keep it until Paris. It's just a question of how much he wins by.

Yes, a great ride by Healy yesterday, and hopefully he can have a few more days like that.

Disappointed to see Vinnegard falter in the time trial as I was hoping for a nice three week battle between himself and Podgcar, but my money would be on Pidgcar now.

I watched stage 3…. Saw pog past van der pol for the stage.. thought that’s this year done, and switched off…

He is so good, its not his fault.. but it’s made the TDF not as interesting

Don’t get me wrong… I have loved the one day classics season (ironically to see how many Pog wins.. because those are a lot closer and not necessarily his thing!)

The giro was a blast! I don’t really get into the TDF till the mountains… but it feels over already

I'm the same. Can't see anyone else winning GC, and flat sprint stages are boring so bring on the lumpy bits, althiugh Healy yesterday put in a sterling effort

So far, the Giro was a better spectacle

Well that's it over for another year.

Pog is in a different class to the rest and despite what was a brutal course turned into a it a procession in the end.

Great final stage loving the course change 😎

A fitting end to another epic race.

Really really disappointed to learn that after 40 years ITV's free to air coverage has come to an end and will now have to pay a subscription to watch it, I haven't missed a single Tour in this 40 years farewell Gary it's been amazing.

Viva Le Tour

I thought yesterday's stage was excellent and I hope they keep the format. I agree about ITV, a superbly produced programme and will be sadly missed.
