Remco dominated from start to finish today. Good for him to roar back after yesterday’s disaster.
JV still owns the podium comfortably, however.

Good on Remco. He got blasted yesterday but raced today. I know the gc guy didn’t care, but that group didn’t race today. They might be a bit ragged at this point and Sepp seems to be totally fine riding within the group. He very well might win this velta. I’m hoping…

Pulling for Sepp...but, good for Remco to win another stage. One bad day can cost you the GC but he's earned respect by not hanging it up and just coasting to the end.

Think this will be the end of red for Sepp. His team will try to go up the road.

That was a bizarre stage. I guess Jumbo team managers just told them its every man for himself.

It's Jumbo Civil War tomorrow for sure.

Jonas is back to putting up alien numbers so I expect him to take red back tomorrow.

After getting stabbed in the back today, I can't imagine being Kuss and riding for Jonas in a key moment, but I guess he's well compensasted to have a short memory.

Sepp says they all have the greenlight to go on the Angliru if they can after working as a team today and on the Tourmalet but we'll see. May not be a great birthday for him tomorrow.

It might be a very interesting afternoon in Spain tomorrow with the possibility of three guys from the same team chasing each other down. I wouldn’t be surprised one bit if that’s what happens tomorrow. Who goes with Remco from JV?

I think Remco wins from the break.

Been watching Vuelta and following the thread first post in here normally post in the Tour one.

Can't see them letting Remco into a break tomorrow even though I can see him trying. You know TJV will be selective in who goes up the road, my question is if TJV sends someone into the break, who is he helping pull on the final climb? First to get there?

Chris Horner was saying he hopes Remco stays back and battles with the big boys for our entertainment

Remco should attack tomorrow. They can let him go - he's too far back on GC.

Poor move by Jonas, IMO. He should be riding for Sepp at this point.

If they screw Sepp on this, then I'm all for bringing back the Blue Train and making Sepp the team leader.

Jonas attacking for the stage win is fine, but not from 6k out. He completely fricked Sepp because Sepp, being a good teammate, couldn’t attack and bring other riders back to Jonas. He was stuck riding back in the group no matter what. Jonas should have attacked with 2k or less to go

Hopefully Sepp breaks him today but I can think it’s extremely unlikely. Jonas is back on peak Tour form.

Landa was a better teammate to Sepp than his actually teammates were.

Denmark and Slovenia are on thin ice.
