    GB seems to be:
    Dowsett, Stannard, Hampton,
    1 minute to Briggs, Beckinsale
    2 minutes to peloton

    something like 70k to go.

    de Cauwer conclusion? After the next lap, if it stays like this.

    Germany: Wegmann
    Slovakia: Sagan
    Czech Rep: Rabon
    Switzerland: Kohler
    Kazakhstan: Bazayev
    Ukraine: Grivko
    Italy TT: Cataldo

    Only race Fabian can win. I guess it guarantees him another years contract...

    Lotto struggling to arrange it behind, but with 36km to go, you'd think they will.

    They're fed up with the QS boys not doing the work - who know Boonen's on his way up.
