Away from the spotlight, a finely-judged ride today from Pierre Rolland saw him take the lead in the sable jersey classification, but he looks vulnerable to a late challenge from Nairo Quintana in the final time-trial.
Rolland is in 18th place at 1h 00m 13s, Quintana 17th at 0h 57m 49s. With no other serious challengers, advantage Quintana I'd say.

Not that they are rare but a couple of annoying fans on the final uncategorised climb. The 1 tapping the Ineos rider on the back and another right in amongst the bikes!!! It’s just respect (lack of in their case of course).

Swearing at the bike scrutineers... Naughty Jumbo!
I reckon Roglic will lose the jersey now the UCI have taken out his motor...

That had to be the most careless 'thanks - you take it, mate' finish in history. Carapaz must have been within a cm or two of accidentally winning! 
PS No - it looked worse on TV... actually, nearly half a wheel between them!

provably worth pointing out someone else got fined £6 or something and the line was ‘pour le technologique fraudulent’ or words to that effect

Looking at that photo again... I just noticed that Carapaz is braking to make sure, or at least covering the lever for emergency use if needed!

nice to see that quintana can dance even if he cant win a stage
To be fair, if they damaged the bike of my future TdF winner I would swear a bit too.
