No exactly as expected. The only way he would still be leader was if he was the first Jumbo over the line. Not going to happen.
Teunissen looked fast could get a stage in this field.
That was before the team meeting for this stage. Getting it yesterday was the gift for Gesink, they didn't commit to keeping it for 3 stages, so if you're probably gonna offload it to someone you ofload it to a Dutch rider who alos happens to be the best at placing himself in that bunch sprint.

It's an easy choice IMO

Easy to look fast when you do the whole sprint drafted and push no wind.
True, but he also has shown in the past he can beat top sprinters. He lacks support obviously so needs to get lucky here.
Also Red and Yellow not bad for a rider who always rides support in GT's.

Teunissen said the team agreed to let Teunissen take it. Tried to look after Roglic in the final kms but lost him until Affini brought them back, which is when Roglic told Teunissen to sprint.

Tao GH also losing over 40 secs and Uran too. Looks like some guys are on the back foot already.

Unless these times are readjusted!!!

So tomorrow they can let Oomen have the red jersey as well.
They can try but at the same time it's a bit of an annoying amount of effort. You need to keep Oomen, Kuss and Roglic up there and then you probably need to ask Teunissen/Affini to drop time deliberately

an news on wether the peleton gets the same time? I see some GC stats where roglic isn't in the top 20 anymore and others where he has the same time.

Pro cycling stats & the Vuelta official site have Roglič 4th on GC with same time. I trust they're correct.
