    Langeveld's losing time - down to 47"... Flecha looks like he's suffering but is riding well.

    Well it doesn't look like the masses on the PTP are getting points for picking Gilbert or Edvald, including me :(

    Flecha smells blood and Langeveld, after looking so, so comfortable is starting to suffer.

    Even if caught - Langeveld is normally much faster at the sprint than Flecha - still, with this weather and after a long race a sprint won't be normal

    Great classic flemish racing this

    23 seconds to a two horse race.
    18 seconds.
    Flecha should be faster.

    Flecha certainly seemed to make up a lot of time on the cobbles. Losing time on the smooth road.
  • Langeveld has gone. Flecha is looking really good now.

    G3 going backwards??? What are they thinking in that group?
