Today could be a battle for seconds. The "green kilometer", with three times 3-2-1 seconds, comes 22 km before the finish, in the penultimate lap, between the Keizersberg and the Wijnpers.

Wellens should let MvdP and De Lie waste their energy in those sprints, and attack immediately after the third sprint, just when the other two straighten their back.
 
We are headed for the conclusion with stage 5:

All the rouleur types with some sprinting capability should have a chance to win the stage. Wouldn't mind De Lie to win the stage and GC, but this will likely pull some teeth doing so.

Race is about to start with live pics in 2.5 hours or so.

Thibau’s training parcours. He’s alert in the front rows.

Bahrein keeps pacing. If they race it hard like this there could be some gaps in the local lap. Otherwise it would be hard to drop De Lie. Hope to see an all out attack on the Wijnpers from Mathieu, last time during the WC he was not in his best form. Perfect hill for him.
