Absolutely gutted for Hirsch after that stage ( and myself as I'd backed him ! ) Turning into a great tour though.Still all to play for.
As if losing the stage wasn't bad enough ☹

If I'm reading that right (love the whistle pictograms!) the offence was feeding in the last 20km, penalty 20seconds and some Swiss Francs.

If he HAD won the stage, would the victory have stood??

 

[Adam4868]

Fines are sometimes tactical,time penaltys are a different ball game.

It's hilarious that he kept the bonus seconds for 3rd place - how very French!

Looks like he also got 200CHF fine for throwing rubbish away outside a zone. Pleased to see this but most of them appear to be doing this most of the time, not just the three listed here.

On the coast today, could make for some interesting crosswinds........hopefuly.

The weather forecast is for not much wind sadly...

Who will have an advantage in the TT?
It is a hilly course....

 

[Shadow]

Forecast is for tailwind until la Rochelle, where they turn left. If wind increases a little then, we might have enough crosswinds for some fun.

I cannot recall such a flat stage; highest point being bridge to Ile de Ré! Average expected speed for the stage 45 kph!!

Any small wagers today @Adam4868 that is not Ewan or Bennett?

I've gone with Bol...sooner or later he's gotta take a stage ! Pretty please.

well the break of 2 was rather quickly formed, ..straight from the off.

Nasty crash
