40 seconds is the gap and that tells you that the pelican has more or less accepted that a diminished breakaway considering the 22-23 riders that we had up the road a little earlier is now down to nine already um some of the riders have been a distance the lewis lane sanchez pushing on for astana but with only 38 seconds and team sky setting the pace i think everybody will be brought back in this plane this man is starting to really suffer well even at the beginning of the day once we came out of that vernaria reality they put it down to a mechanical there’s nothing wrong with the bike sean but there’s clearly something wrong with the legs and this is a crucial moment possible has gone backwards here big style i don’t know whether he’ll be able to get back on uh once we go over the top and here he is well we talked about not having teammates around you and support we said maybe you said brian maybe he doesn’t need it but i think he’s showing right now that actually he does well i think everybody does but you know they’re just concentrating in the wheels in front of them if anybody tom demoulin does look good pinot having a good day just when we thought he was possibly out of it but chris froome decides to go ellison his job is done pow chris froome decides to lay with to stick one on absolutely everybody oh and is it gonna be a knockout blow this is outstanding run right now we still got 80 kilometres to go don’t forget chris froome is taking advantage here well my goodness is he going to be taking the mick to be honest when he goes over the top how long is he prepared to be isolated and it’s nearly six minutes as froome holds his pace simon yates is losing his at the time i’m afraid he’s shipping it’s almost titanic just a a delight to see not only pushed up look at the numbers we’re nearly there froome about to take the team of copies built up some big big titles here uh don’t forget took the zonkerland took the win there he’s now going across the team of copy the highest point of the race we see it again here carlton he just pulls over it’s not over yet and uh telltale sign there was uh tom dumoulin when he came over the top of the climb or just before the top of the climb he actually gestured towards a pinot uh just you know don’t panic you know he’s gonna wait up so if they wait for a reiki back as well wow where do we start with this lock we start with 45 points for the chima copy for chris froome on the colleague he’s now just too behind in the mountains classification the current man who is of course simon yates yep and 126 is the gap still back to the defending champion that’s the virtual standing on your screen so to simplify if the geode italia stage 19 was to finish right here tom dumoulin would be leading by 1 26. while some of you are away at a commercial break we saw chris froome have to take evasive action to go around the motorbike pilot who had crashed in the tunnel thankfully the pilot was moving and was okay and thankfully it looks as though the riders behind were either warned or the bike was moved here we go chris flume has just moved in to the virtual pink jersey as it stands if the stage would have finished now this man incredibly so would lead 5.8 kilometers he’s going backwards oh my goodness well i saw the spectacles get put into his helmet and then all of a sudden we were wondering what he had left and i think we find it oh uh dumadan at the moment getting back in here and he’s going to sail by these guys oh kicks dust in their face mountain dust that is this is brilliant here’s the flat section right now right at the very last still not quite there 50 meters 25 oh chris froome knockout performance everybody has an interest in doing something and this man in particular karapats goes off he wants a six second bonus don’t forget in his cert challenge to lopez for the young riders jersey and tom dumoulin’s not going to get any bonus seconds here at all deary me across the line no disrespect at all to these guys they’re doing what they’re paid to do and doing it brilliantly oh you have to feel for the defending champion two names were written large at the top of this race before we even began in jerusalem froome and dumoulin nothing in that regard has changed but our leader is chris through you
