    WOHN: Armitstead, Johansson & Pieters have 51" on Majerus and 1'42" on main chase group of around 21-23

    How far left to race for the women?

    If an IAM rider won solo and crossed the line solo in this or any upcoming race that would be amazing.

    You must have a special telebox that only shows races that aren't televised.
