To me there was a gap of over a second between Greipel and Demare, so Valverde should only have gained 3 seconds on Nibali and Landa

Yes, I was surprised that they gave Greipel and Demare the same time. That looked like a big gap.del1962 said:To me there was a gap of over a second between Greipel and Demare, so Valverde should only have gained 3 seconds on Nibali and Landa

There doesn't have to be a 4" gap. But there is a 1" gap which means the next guy is placed in the time he lost on the winner.
