Easier to See G18-54
As the peloton came down off of the Avaglio catagory 3 climb, Salvatore Puccio (Sky) went to the front to lead his captain, Chris Froome down. It is always easier to decent off of a mountain when you can have clear sight lines and a bit of elbow room. On the four time Tour de France winner's wheel were two Mitchelton-Scott lieutenants, Svein Tuft and Sam Bewley. They were keeping a close eye on from for the Maglia Rosa. Froome has been known to attack on descents (successfully) to gain time on the general classification.
