For the group around Mont Blanc, there has been very little flying today, none at all for some, and progress on foot in this high mountain terrain is arduous and slow. Markus Anders (GER2) has rounded the Turnpoint and is 10km ahead of Ferdinand Van Schelven (NED). Tom de Dorlodot (BEL) and Toma Coconea (ROU) remain very close together a further 5km back.
