Kool has not reached top form all season. In saying that DSM normally nail the lead outs.

I am little worried for tomorrow's certain bunch sprint considering the two finishes so far have both resulted in crashes. Today it looked like a case of touching wheels and thus a rider error.

So much for wide straight roads making finishes safer (okay there were a few roundabouts). Hope when they get up the mountains they can stay off the freeways.

She's been struggling to get over a bout of early season flu, each time she came back, it came back again,so she's only done about 2/3rds of the racing of the others.

So 2nd is good, especially as we didnt think she'd make it over that hill to stay in touch till the end, though I appreciate the pace might have helped.

She is obviously getting better as she could not get over the climbs yesterday which was an easier stage.

Van Dijk is a confirmed non-starter today. Definitely a rider Trek could need today in case there'll be echelon action. Justine Ghekiere won't be starting either.

I wonder if the front group, and probably mainly SD Worx, wants to ride 100km with a hard pace.
I bet the peloton will come back, because too many teams missed the split.

First live pictures. Didn't expect that the front group is working so well together. Every rider is participating to keep the pace high.
