Tom Jelte Slagter (GRS) takes his second stage and takes revenge for the misfortune from yesterday. Geraint Thomas (SKY) sadly fell out of contention, and can forget his GC ambition. The leader of the race is still the same as yesterday.
Tomorrow comes the last stage from Paris-Nice. It's unlikely that there will be any big changes, but the riders have to keep their attention. Thomas showed that an accident can happen quick, and it's not wise to be to far back in the peleton when some riders attack on the last climb. Tommorow we'll know if Carlos Betancur (ALM) wins his first WT stage race and if Rui Costa (LAM) can finally score in his rainbow jersey.
Where's the Col'd Eze TT?

Looking on the bright side 2 stage wins and even more proof of pedigree is a silver lining at least  |

Gotta say really don't like the Paris-Nice this year with the time-trials taken out and the nice weather hasn't helped much either. |

Nibali is dead.
Die hard fan of Tom Boonen and Quickstep since 2004.

Spilak vs Betancur. Fränk Schleck turning out to be the kingmaker for Paris-Nice?

Gap increasing. Hmmm.
Spilak may very well take a stage here. Too far for GC though

Spilak's 37 seconds down in GC btw. 10 second possible time bonus.

If Rojas takes this you all own him an apology.
