    Ah no, his little stretch of the legs has been brought back.

    Terspstra turning the screw. van Bilsen and Demare dropped.

    Roelandts hits the front of the chase group.

    Boonen hasn't done anything much. Sitting at the back of the Vanmarcke group.

    Nice! Let's see how the 2 Dutchies will try to get rid of EBH

    I think Vanmarcke just likes to be out the front on the cobbled sections. Sensible.

    I hope Terpstra gets this - no one else deserves it yet.

    Hehe. Doesn't look like he knows Boom is ahead.

    That'll be his excuse anyway ;)

    What imagery!

    Phinney looks horrendous.

    Is the second Sky in the chasers Luke Rowe? Stannard is there. Eisel dropped off after bringing Eddy back into contention...

    Maybe he's spotted Kimmage on the roadside?

    Not much of a chasing peleton left now, and all the while the gap goes out.
  • a lot getting a breather in that group

    The first of the chase group with Phinney, GvA, Roelandts etc.

    EBH doesn't have the legs and will get worked over by the Dutch pair

    Boonen in the 3rd group. Fail.

  • Demare betting sit up and sprint it out - best in that group

    Boom does a nice "exasperated with stupid" face.

    Boom punctures!
