You might just be lucky today, i'm watching it in Italian because Eurosport have decided one of the most important (could be) stages this year wont get much coverage, just aswell names are the same in all languages

But it looks like the break may stay away, they are getting further and further away

Bakelandts to win if it stays away  4

I dont know how it works with the mountains, because it says

Quote:

Stage KM: Points awarded for points accrued in the climber's classification from the day's stage. Does not include mountaintop stage finishes.

So does the mean because its a mountain finish the rest of the climb points dont count?
