They are halfway through the stage, approaching the hardest climb of the day. Previously, it has been reported that there were only 40 riders in the peloton.

 

[Netserk]

On the previous climb, Vine led a group with 3 UAE riders in it. Visma chased behind in a group with at least Tulett, Nordhagen and Smith.

EDIT: That was from the first ascent of the main climb, after 45 km. After the 2nd ascent, the group should have ~30".

Looks like a UAE coup. Covi to salvage their season so far, poor team?

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Live pictures.....37kms to go

 

[Netserk]

We're live! Sheffield and Tulett pulling the chase group over the penultimate climb.

 

[Netserk]

Apparently the main favourites caught the break of the day with the UAE trio?!

It looks like Nordhagen with Tulett.

Yep gruppo compatto.

Perfect weather to get sick soon too.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

about 3kms to the climb, small group left, anything can happen.

Signs of life from Nordhagen

He was also good two days ago, but sat up after he was done.

 

[SafeBet]

Ulissi not in group 1 right?

 

[Tim Cahill]

Jorgen was always going to come good, just got sick in Oman.

 

[Tim Cahill]

That Colpack kit is awesome

 

[Samamba]

Jorgen was always going to come good, just got sick in Oman.

No on is having doubts about his talent, but he's sick 75% of the time. That's problematic.

 

[Netserk]

Grande Vine!!!

 

[Samamba]

Jay Vine on his way to another one

 

[Tim Cahill]

Random Petrolike rider already a better tactician than 95% of top classics riders on account of not giving V$ne a turn.

Then again maybe he just can't.

 

[Netserk]

Sheffield really has to give it a go.

 

[Samamba]

2nd big group is coming back to leader group. I think the fight for GC is basically done.

 

[Netserk]

Sheffield really has to give it a go.

Here he goes!

 

[Samamba]

I don't think it's possible to drop Tulett in current form but at least he's trying. Clearly best 2 in this race
