Andy: I thought he had hung up his trident?
This, of course, is about the legendary Didi Senft. Perhaps we have seen the last of him.
I love the way he has his own wikipedia page., external
Ominous for Froome?
Every time Astana have taken the yellow jersey in the Tour, they have kept it to the very end.

There is no escaping the race this weekend as a young woman attempts to ride her horse peacefully alongside the competing cyclists.
Image source, EPASo, to recap there is a breakaway of five with a lead of just under two minutes on the road to Rodez.
Reto Hollenstein, Thomas de Gendt, Timo Roosen, Maxime Bouet and the evergreen Tommy Voeckler.
There are two category three climbs to come and a nasty uphill finish that probably won't suit the pure sprinters.
Chances of them staying away? Not great.

Boom. Marcel Kittel didn't really look like he was trying when he won his mini-sprint - hitting 63.3km/hr.
We've all got devices these days - what's the fastest speed you've hit on the flat?

Fans looking very up for an excellent day out in the sun, cheering on the Tour.
And with France's Warren Barguil currently wearing the polka dot jersey, well, that seems to be a popular option right now.

Has Didi Senft been spotted on this years Tour?

I heard yesterday's stage described as a high speed game of chess, which I thought was a fairly wonderful description.
But for me the quote of the day belonged to Astana's Fabio Aru, who said: "At some point I stopped counting the number of attacks."
It must have been quite a lonely existence for the race leader on Friday - shorn of team-mates, rivals attacking him all over the drag and then descent into Foix.
The five men approach the intermediate sprint, Thomas de Gendt pulls away and takes the 20 points.
Maxime Bouet made a half-hearted attempt to catch him up but it didn't come to much.
The lead remains in the two-minute region.
When the peloton comes through, Marcel Kittel wins a sprint of kind and takes 10 points to extend his green jersey lead (ever so slightly).

As this photo rather superbly illustrates, FDJ are a little on the thin side considering there is still a week left.
Wonder if they're getting bored of each other's company?

Spent the morning sight seeing around Liverpool before tonight's 100km Nightrider... Fancy Froome's chances at 4:00am coming through Bootle?
Dan and Ian
There are 20 points to grab at the intermediate sprint. None of the five in the breakaway are in contention for the green jersey.
Marcel Kittel currently has a massive lead with 363 points. He also has the little matter of five stage wins.
Sunweb's Michael Matthews is second with 235 points.

The advantage for the breakaway of five is now just a shade more than two minutes.
This is very steady Tour action compared to what we had on Thursday and Friday. One eye on Monday's rest day already? GC contenders hoping for a relatively quiet couple of stages before the big beasts that lie in store before Paris? Absolutely.
Image source, EPAApparently Fortuneo-Vital Concept's sport director Denis Leproux explained on French TV just now that the lead group had been instructed to let Reto Hollenstein join them. The feeling is they will work better with him among their number.

With the break having gone and established so early on - and with Steve missing it, that's more than likely his chance gone of the stage. I'm sure his day will come over the next week.
In terms of the stage winner - it could very well be a day for the Olympic road champion Greg Van Avermaet, or possibly Michael Matthews, or potentially from a British point of view Ben Swift - due to the tough nature of the final 500m.
The GC in terms of the race is looking really, really good. I can't remember the last time the top four were all within 35 seconds of each other at this stage of the race. This Tour is by no means done and dusted.
It will be over before you know it. Or about 16:30 BST according to the race organisers.
Some awesome shots of sunflowers on the TV pictures. We are at that point in the stage.

And don't forget that, as always, you will be able to listen to the final couple of hours of the stage on this very page.
Commentator Simon Brotherton and summariser Rob Hayles will be breaking you all the action from 14:30 BST.
The message from the team in France is that work never stops....
