Peloton still pretty big. Break has to be running low on gas. Still, 3:30 for 30k is gonna need some proper chasing...
Nah. They look very tired.

The favorites should be more concerned about the size of the peloton. It's still very large.
VMT. Unless I'm mistaken, Matthews is still there, so is GVA and a lot of other dangerous puncheurs who can potentialy go solo. And not much time left to drop them.
Very true.

And Valverde looks relatively isolated. No workhorses left. Could be a huge problem.

Believe me, they're hard to spot but they're there. He has 3 teammates in the group.

3km to RAF
 
2 minutes for 20k. Yeah, doomed with this size of peloton. It'll surely be a Valverde/van Avermaet moment at the end...Another very controlled race by most teams with realistic ambitions...

Rosseto goes. Dual Cofidis at the front soon? Interesting.

BMC trying to slow down the pace and the other teams aren't reacting.

GVA is beginning to be very, very dangerous.
I think Matthews even more so. If it stays as a peloton, he can go all out on San Nicholas, close any small gap and recover on that 10km of flat. Then he has as a good a shot as anyone on Ans.
