170km mountain stage from Grenoble to Méribel Col de la LozeInjured reigning champion Bernal abandons raceAnd feel free to email Barry here or tweet @bglendenning 12.36pm BST
117km to go: Our leading quintet are now just shy of four minutes clear of the peloton, which is about to be rejoined by Daryl Impey. It’s pretty flat until they get to the bottom of the hors categorie monster that is the Col de la Madeleine. I’ll be back in a few minutes, to make sure you don’t miss any of the action when things start going uphill. 12.30pm BST
122km to go: Bennett is the first of the bunch past the intermediate sprint post and tightens his grip on the yellow jersey. His team-mate Michael Morkov is next, depriving Peter Sagan of even more points. It’s a two-point swing for Bennett.
