Game over
GROENEWEGEN took it

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Groenewegen easily. Demare just can't position himself to save his life.

 

[repre]

Groenewegen is the best sprinter right now. Amazing progress.

Yes, that's disappointing.

Great sprint by Dylan and again a monster job done by Amund Jansen and Timo Roosen.

No, not by a long shot. Gaviria and Kittel (if Kittel gets his train together). And Viviani is awesome this season as well.

Plus there are riders that are pretty much the same level if not better, like Caleb Ewan etc

30+ riders with almost 4 minutes to the peloton. In that group: Michal Kwiatkowski. What an odd stage.

Portugal has a weird effect on pro cycling. I love it!

Volta ao Algarve‏ @VAlgarve2018

Head of race. Lukas Postlberger (Bora-hansgrohe). +30s: Michal Kwiatkowski (Team Sky), Ruben Guerreiro (Trek-Segafredo), Serge Pauwels (Team DImension Data) and Simon Geschke (Team Sunweb). Other fugitives, 1m10s behind. Peloton ruled by SKY, + 4m30s.
4:48 pm - 18 Feb 2018

Pauwels is second best in GC in the break, 3 minutes behind.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Looks good for Kwiato then

 

[wouterkaas]

I just started watching the stage. How did Geraint Thomas miss this break?

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Dunno, but the difference is still more than 3 minutes. I think we can safely assume Kwiatkowski wins the GC and anyone not in the break will lose at least 1/2 min

 

[Netserk]

Morning break. He has it covered with his teammate.

[Arked]

[MatParker117]

Is that Kiry as well?

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

Stybar makes it across to Postlberger.

Re:

+3m50 last time i checked (6/7km ago). So basically no chance, even if they ride a superb climb.

 

[Sestriere]

Why is Stuyven riding full gas?

Edit: Nevermind, Guerreiro is there.

 

[Netserk]

Stybar looks pretty good for 3rd or 2nd overall.

[HelloDolly]

Stefan Kung is chasing hard

 

[Max Rockatansky]

This is a great stage. Nice rollercoaster and great riding.
