That was a great ride by Nibali. Sky clearly tried to put him under maximum pressure, instead he showed Wiggins how to ride these steep climbs. But Wiggins really didn't too badly, considering this was the kind of climb that doesn't suit him, losing only 39 seconds to Nibali. Henao must have been having a bad day but this does mean he can be used to attack later in the race. Evans was impressive again, Hesjedal equally unimpressive.

Nibali is looking in imperious form.
Wonder if Sky are now regretting making Uran and Henao wait for Wiggo the other day - because of the time Uran lost then, Nibali could afford to lose a bit of time to him today so wasn't forced to respond with as much effort as he might have been.

To put Wiggins's 39 seconds in perspective, Hesjedal lost 20 minutes today...
Blimey!
Wiggins can't handle the steep stuff but we knew that already. We just hoped that the ITT would have given him enough of a buffer.

Bit of a low-key celebration of his win by Betancur today though, compared to his previous win.

Never underestimate the ability to suffer, Cuddles has it in abundance.
