Two real climbs and a summit finish (a first ever on the Izoard); will it be enough to force any changes in the GC on this final mountain stage?
Teams with lieutenants to spare will send them ahead on the Col de Vars to have them to spare on the final climb. We might very well see riders who had their GC hopes dashed go for the stage victory here. Contador, Quintana, Pinot, Aru, Uran? Take your pick.
Winner: Warren Barguil
L'Argentière-la-Bessée lies on the River Durance, which is used for kayaking, white-water rafting and other water sports. The village has an old silver mine (which is where the name of L'Argentière derived from), which is now opened to tourists. There has been silver mining here since Roman times.
In this area are also quite a number of fortifications built by Sébastien Le Prestre de Vauban; a quite interesting figure. "Vauban made a radical suggestion of giving up some land that was indefensible to allow for a stronger, less porous border with France's neighbours."
Please note that when redeeming this key it also creates a gift copy of Frozen Cortex. Please send the gift to me so I can send it to a friend. Thanks.

Impossible win by Warren Barguil!
It's incredible how he has been able to win two (and so nearly) three mountain stages only months after breaking his pelvis... Masterstroke by Sunweb to not make him ride for the GC though (well, Visbeen just said they were riding for a top 10 classification); I don't think he would have won a stage otherwise. Two roomies winning four stages and two jerseys (green and polka dot) between them, very impressive!
Really shame for Atapuma though, he certainly deserved something today.
So what happened when Mikel Landa broke away from Froome and the favorites? Was that tactics, was it mutiny? Hard to say right now but I'm sure Sky will say it was all planned.
Froome is gonna win his next Tour, in case anyone was still doubting that. Aru unfortunately couldn't follow but Bardet is quite strong, looks a pretty certain future Tour winner now.
Mass sprint tomorrow?

Hi Corran . I saw your message and check my inventory , but there is no gift copy. It just didn't happen .
I'm writing email to developers , so wait for the news.

That is really strange; the store page clearly says you should get one.

They want to know where did you buy it.

Good thing I keep records. Bad thing; my records say it's from Gameminer; which I assume means it's from the now defunct Russian SteamGifts-like site. I know I also got the game via HumbleBundle twice but I can't find out where this key came from originally.
Still weird though; you'd expect that a key that works always creates a gift copy in your inventory, I know it did for me.
Anyway, it's not worth putting more effort into this as they will likely not be keen on offering much support since we can find out where the key was from originally.
Guess we chalk this one up to bad luck.
In my next event I'm giving away a Frozen Cortex from HumbleBundle, hopefully that will go better.
Thanks for your work and enjoy the game!
