What will MTN Qhubeka's tactics be? Have they named a leader? They seem a bit sprinter heavy.

According to the Sporza ticker Tylar Farrar said
"We hebben verschillende paarden waarop we kunnen gokken. Als we niet mijn kaart trekken, wordt het misschien die van Boasson Hagen, Ciolek of Brammeier."

Which is Dutch for: "We have different horses to bet on. If we don't pull my card, it might be Boasson Hagen, Ciolek or Brammeier."

There's a break

Gougeard, Brammeier, Laborie, Reihs, Van Melsen and Verhelst 2 minutes ahead of the peleton

at 25 seconds of the break there's De Bie, Timmer and Marycz

Gougeard won two 1.1 races from the break as a neo-pro last year, can he up his game and do the same in a 1.HC race? :p

There's a pretty decent wind from the south, so it will be mostly back wind in the finale riding back to Gent. I guess that's positive for those looking to attack. :)

It took a while but the three in pursuit finally made it to the break. So it looks like the break of the day will be

Gougeard, Brammeier, Laborie, Reihs, Van Melsen, Verhelst, De Bie, Timmer and Marycz

They have 5'13 on the peloton now.

MTN going for Farrar. That's the same as buying an old television from 1975, in the hope you can watch in HD.

They're about to break the world record of cycling broadcast without live images: more than 50 minutes of talking and still going on.
