Re: Re:

Confirmed out of the first 10, Valentin Madouas (Groupama-FDJ), Sepp Kuss (Team LottoNL - Jumbo), Edvald Boasson Hagen (Dimension Data), Mark Padun (Bahrain Merida Pro Cycling Team), Victor Campenaerts (Lotto Soudal). Then a group of 60 led by Sky not that far behind. Then what's left at 5 minutes.

Latour and Jauregui (both AG2R) both also being reported as part of the group

And also, apparently, Truls Korsaeth (Astana) and Rob Power (mitchelston)

Re:

Valverde and Roglic in the break, 1:20 to the chasing "what's left of" peoloton led by Sky.

Neither LottoNL nor Movistar are aware of that according to their Twitter feeds

 

[Chrispol]

What a carnage !

Madouas is a talent.

 

[DFA123]

looks like its coming back together - that 'peloton' also looks a lot bigger than perhaps we were led to believe. Way more than 30 riders there.

 

[Samamba]

Valverde in the front group now!
Kwiat too!

 

[GenericBoonenFan]

Was that WvA in the group with Kwiato?

 

[Asero831]

How many riders left?

Re:
