Once again, hills are better than mountains

Purple points
Everyone in the top ten got picked: that is very rare.

Pink points
After a rather passive week in the main classification, apart from the misfortunes of Bardet and Girmay, we finally have some action.  Which is a good thing for some, but not others.

I presume there was good and bad news for all teams today, but not in equal measure...

Standings
No disrespect intended to Lopez or TRiley, but these perhaps represent a more likely shape of the game.  But with plenty of opportunities for things to change (except maybe for RhD)

Laarsland now only has 3 riders left; Del 1962 has one more, but has 2262 points of his budget having a lie in tomorrow.

And just about the only thing that didn't change today is the interforum challenge position:
VR 1071
CN 953
