Game back on or just a climb that suited Dumoulin? Two more exciting stages to come.

Definitely looks like "Game on"....Yates has been able to gap Dumoulin on any climb up until now.

Could have just been a momentary weakness, but definitely adds intrigue to the next 2 days!!
Just say "NO!" to WCP!!!!

Finistre tomorrow could explode things to bits, steep, high, part unpaved.

Watch for Pozzovivo to blow up race a la Nibali. He still seems relatively fresh.

Stage 20 finish looks like it could suit Dumoulin again.

But the finish is not on top of the Finestre (but it is till a summit finish stage), so there is time for riders to come back from that beast of a climb.

Should be a great stage tomorrow....i imagine nerves are running a bit high in the Michelton camp right now!

Given relative weakness of Michelton today Finistre may well serve to isolate Yates which would create conditions for a long-range attack. This is Giro after all; all kind of crazy things are possible.

Hoping for more fireworks tomorrow. BTW, I've been able to watch stages on line using the Israeli TV feed. The video quality is fantastic. I have no idea what the commentators are saying (Hebrew) but the post race interviews are usually in English.

Strange to watch Froome give it all he has yet, basically, gain nothing. More inhaler puffs are needed, perhaps.

Btw all I understand from Hebrew live feed is when they say WOW. Which happens often.

F#ck if I ain't absolutely done with pro cycling as I am with the NFL.

They can shove an illegitimate idiot president down our throats, I guess anything goes.

It's all an illusion.
