  1. 5km to go

    Former GB cyclist on BBC 5 live sports extra

    I'm just wondering if Peter Sagan is using too much energy here. He's all over the place. 

  2. 7km to go

    The group is down to six riders now as one of the Orica BikeExchange riders drops out, I think it's Luke Durbridge. 

    Peter Sagan is out in front now as they his the flat after the climb. Greg van Arvemaet is among this group, don't forget. He's been in yellow already this year after winning stage five.

    This could add pressure to the Orica BikeExchange riders. They are three amongst the group of seven riders, if they don't win from this position it could be a pretty miserable team dinner tonight. 

  5. 8km to go

    The pace slows as they hit the hill. Aussie Luke Durbruidge, one of three Orica BikeExchange riders, is out of his seat but he's done and team-mate Daryl Impey takes over as they crank the pace again. 

  6. 10km to go

    The Orica BikeExchange rider Luke Durbridge is pushing as the front runners extend their lead at la tete de la course. The peloton is over seven minutes behind. 

    Peter Sagan is tucked in saving his energy as they approach the third category climb, the Cote de Saint Ferreol.

  8. Contador signs for Trek Segafredo

    Spanish media are reporting that Alberto Contador will ride for Trek Segafredo for the next two seasons. 

  9. Peloton happy to sit back

    The peloton have backed up a bit and they're just cruising towards this climb.

    I doubt any of them will be looking to make a move. They've got bigger battles to come.

  11. 15km to go

    The category three climb near the end of the stage is about eight kilometres away. The leading seven are more than a minute ahead and six minutes ahead of the peloton. 

  12. 18km to go

    There are seven riders amongst the leading group now, which includes three from Orica BikeExchange - Michael Matthews, Daryl Impey and Luke Durbridge - Sky's Mikel Landa and Tinkoff's Peter Sagan are on their shoulder. 

    The eight that have dropped off the pace, which includes Steve Cummings and Vicenzo Nibali, are going backwards and will be caught by the peloton. 

  13. Your best pit stops

    You lot are making me hungry. Anyone do deliveries?

  14. How will stage 10 finish?

    Rob Hayles and OJ Borg have been taking a look at the finish in Revel. Rob is tipping Peter Sagan to have a good chance of the win.

  15. 24km to go

    The lead group appears to be dividing into a 10-5 split. 

    Unfortunately for British cycling fans, Steve Cummings looks like he might be one of those dropping back. Vincenzo Nibali is another.

    Looks amazing. Could do with some of that now with a hot cup of tea. 

  18. 30km to go

    The peloton passes Didi the Devil, who is bouncing around like he's had too many cans of fizzy pop.

    For those just joining us, the 15 leaders, who are passing through Castelnaudary, are as follows. 

    Mikel Landa (Sky), Peter Sagan (Tinkoff), Steve Cummings (Dimension Data), Vincenzo Nibali (Astana), Gorka Izagirre (Movistar), Samuel Dumoulin (AG2R-La Mondiale), Damiano Caruso and Greg Van Avermaet (BMC), Edvald Boasson Hagen (Dimension Data), Tony Gallopin (Lotto-Soudal), Rui Costa (Lampre-Merida), Sylvain Chavanel (Direct Energie), Luke Durbridge, Daryl Impey and Michael Matthews (Orica-BikeExchange).     

  19. Rest not always best

    Rob Hayles

    Tomorrow should be a stamped-on sprint stage so I would imagine the sprinters will just look to get through safely today.

    Some riders find the day after a rest day quite heavy going.

  20. 32km to go

    Direct Energie are now making the running at the tip of the peloton but the gap to the leaders is not really coming down. Four and a half minutes now.
