Probably riding for Vendrame.Also, what was Cosnefroy even thinking there?
Was he the rider coming at double speed on the right?Also, what was Cosnefroy even thinking there?
Those two are good sprinters for climbers tbh!!!Lol, Mollema and Quintana in the top four of a sprint. The end is near.
Quintana fifth, though?Lol, Mollema and Quintana in the top four of a sprint. The end is near.

He finish at the back of the group, losing no time. Could be a worse start.Oh, @Ilmaestro99: German commentary went on for quite some time about Masnada.![]()
He was doing quite a bit of pulling on the flat from the last 30K or so that I saw. So definitely there in support this time it seems. Prep race for next year's giroHe finish at the back of the group, losing no time. Could be a worse start.
I didn't see the today stage. How was Fausto looking? Obviously it seems he will be working for joao this week rather than getting his own chances.
With quickstep team I don't see how Almeida/Cattaneo/Masnada can lose this.
I only started watching with about 35k to go but at that time he was already pulling the peloton with little help from other teams so I'm very impressed that he still made it into the front group after all that work.He finish at the back of the group, losing no time. Could be a worse start.

Ayuso lost more than 2 minutes though.39 riders in the front group, with only Cosnefroy and O'Connor of the possible favourites losing time.
Even a sick Nibali made it in.
I didn't really see him as a race favourite, but of course you would have expected him to be able to hold on.Ayuso lost more than 2 minutes though.
Sick Nibali 34th.He finish at the back of the group, losing no time. Could be a worse start.

Not anything shown on tv.Meanwhile, Caleb Ewan dead last on his own. Did something happen to him?
Ewan is keen on the World's so he will suffer through an unsuitable race - Actually if he rode Slovakia he'd nearly win the GC on that parcour.Part of me wants Luxembourg to have a bigass Ardennes classic instead of a 5 day low key stage race.
