This is interesting, I didnt expect it would be a GC stage other than Civiglio. Nice!

Movistar is picking up the work now and is not merely controlling, its a fast pace.

Maybe they all fake-pumping, so the others will think they are strong and be less interested in attacking.

Up the pace for a bit to see what happens. Then just slow down again.

Why in the world would they give the break 15 minutes in the first place and THEN pick up the case? Better just keep the gap much lower with a few of their engines. Really perplexing.
