No time bonuses so after four stages there are fifty-six riders on the same time. Surely Britain can come up with some kind of hilly course somewhere? They went over a speed bump the other day and were handing out King of the Mountain points for it.
An interesting couple of days coming up in the Vuelta. Going up the Aubisque and the Tourmalet tomorrow, another brutal stage on Saturday. Roglic and Vingegaard in there for Jumbo Visma but their domestique, Sepp Kuss, has a decent lead for now so they've got three cards to play. I'm expecting them to make a complete mess of Evenepoel at some point but hopefully not. Geraint Thomas needs snookers already, he's down in 18th place.
