[VeloMaster]

Nice to see the trackies take one now and then!

 

[Rob5091]

Stage 3 finish has a wall that would do the Vuelta proud (200m at 16%!) There is a run in after the second ascent to the finish so there's a chance for a small group sprint. Dunbar, Mohoric, Hayter maybe.

 

[Eddy Evenepoel]

Dversnes with puncture, he was my dark horse for today.

 

[Lequack]

10 km to go!

 

[AmRacer]

WTH was that? Points?

 

[Lequack]

These small climbs are pretty brutal.

 

[Lequack]

It seems Mohoric chose the wrong wheel to follow in the sprint.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Having a descent that lasts until 200 metres to go in a reduced sprint stage is peak Cro Race.

 

[RedheadDane]

Parisini ahead of Lund and Mohoric.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Wtf that last 1k was like a crazy golf course, Aular pinballing all over the place

 

[Eddy Evenepoel]

The last hill was way too short for such a final lol.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Sheffield takes 2 seconds on the other GC riders due to a split, could be crucial if Mohoric wins tomorrow.

Edit: 4 seconds even.

Chapeau Parisini & Q36.5 - got the better line at the last bend and good sprint.

 

[yaco]

Watching the last 2kms showed a great difference in bike handling skills in that group of 25.

Edit: 4 seconds even.

Time gaps have been annulled now, so a straight shootout tomorrow it is.

 

[search]

can't say I ever saw him in G1, but somehow Kristoff got classified with s.t. as well, due to a mechanical.

Thats super strange, he wasnt om the right side of the split at the top of the climb (But maybe he was in the second group that eventually bridged?).
Not that it matters, he will have no chance tomorrow.

Live coverage has started.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

The Danish ES commentators have talked about Aular for so long, that they must have jinxed him by now.
