Are the time bonuses 8-4-2? If so, since there are only three seconds separating everyone in the lead group, doesn't that mean that if they stay away and finish as a group, then whoever wins the sprint takes the GC?

Ah, okay--I thought there was a graphic a little while ago showing that there was only a three second gap among the riders in the lead group, but perhaps that did not take into account bonus seconds today.del1962 said:shalgo said:Are the time bonuses 8-4-2?
