The gap has gone out to 49 seconds. The peloton has screwed it up and the break will definitely win now :)

Timed it almost perfectly today, could have waited 5-10 minutes more tho.

Arnaud Démare to school Nacer Bouhanni! ;)
'school him' as in 'crash him' ? :D Démare surely is on a roll riding hazardously at the moment.

I hope both will be looking to crash each other to add a little spice to it all and fight it out for Frecnh supremacy! :D

I'm not sure why LottoNL is suddenly at the front. I guess they must have some hopes for Groenewegen, but it seems just like an effort to get more TV time.

Demare to clip at least two riders and headbutt another.

Nacer to do an Abdou and drives Demare in the barriers (no fysical damage, just Demare had to break) and then boxing to the finish before being DSQ and relegated to the last place, going to the jury and giving a direct right and left at the jury members before being taken into custody

anything anything for some action...

Groenewegen so far has not been able to do a proper sprint thus far. Boxed in twice and crashed once.

He won't beat Kittel 1 vs 1, but when Kittel is boxed in he certainly has a chance.

3k left and Kittel only has Sabatini left. They had Cavendish for 3 years and Kittel for 2 and still can't get it together after leading out world class sprinters for 5 years?!

*just regrouped. Looked like they faed for a second. But still, they fck it up too often.
