Wow, it's going to be a long day for Caleb.

 

[Pirazziattacks]

Adam Yates, Majka and Kuss certainly weren't the ideal domestiques for this situation.

 

[SafeBet]

Meintjes in the break makes sure the peloton can't soft pedal the stage anyway.

TdF live tracking has Wout with Jonas and Sepptimus.

He wasn't though

 

[DenisMenchov]

TdF live tracking has Wout with Jonas and Sepptimus.

My eyes have him in the peloton. He's the only one with Red Bull helmet, it's not that hard to spot him.

 

[Didinho]

Ineos saved the day for the breakaway. Feeling this could be a Cavagna solo today. But it’s a hard stage, so Meintjes for the win.

 

[Keram]

Well it was fun while it lasted.

 

[Salvarani]

Will probably be more attacks when they hit the next climb shortly

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

The break might be getting closed down by UAE and Jumbo?

 

[Boehmand]

Jumbo, UAE and Trek to the front of the peloton, we may see them slow it down now, so the break goes away.

 

[Didinho]

Lidl Belgium attack! Wout bridged.

 

[Salvarani]

Wout is on it again!

 

[Tim Cahill]

Breakaway looks bridgeable, a few will try now I think

 

[Boehmand]

Jumbo, UAE and Trek to the front of the peloton, we may see them slow it down now, so the break goes away.

And I was wrong - Trek and Jumbo attacks

 

[Salvarani]

Strong not so strong

 

[Salvarani]

Van Aert bridged that easy

 

[Boehmand]

Man this start is exiting

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

Everyone trying to bridge now.

 

[Didinho]

Peloton not far behind. Coming back together soon.

 

[Salvarani]

Whole peloton coming back

 

[Elos Anjos]

This is Jumbo's mysterious plan, to wreck all plans and call it a day.

 

[pelotonIQ]

The break might be getting closed down by UAE and Jumbo?

Will be interesting to see which of them blinks first. But if it was up to me I would be ok with letting Meintjes borrow the yellow jersey to take pressure off.

edit: nvm they got caught

 

[kingjr]

Van Aert bridged that easy

I think he dug pretty deep, but he can do that several times over during the day

 

[RobertCrawley]

Jakobsen announced that this is his last year with Soudal/Lefevre. I'm not sure why he would announce in the middle of the Tour. It seems like that would just be deflating for team morale and cohesiveness.

 

[Boehmand]

Everyone is on their limit, people are getting blown out the back, after being in the break, crazy hard start to the stage.
