    So the chase is done. Quick step will surely start to hit him and make him chase a few gaps.

    Are they going to force Stannard to do some chasing or are they going to pin everything on Boonen's finish?

    Very weak startlist but there are some other reasoanbly large names who should be ashamed. Wiggins, so much for working on the front for that amount of time - what stupid tactics, weaken the field then be nowhere when Stannard needs you.

    Peters notes Stannard pedalling a heavy gear (to suggest he is tired) even in the wheels.

    Stannard got cramp or something. Boonen formidable - bodes well.

    ... or not, didn't think Stannard could bring that back! But he's just going to get worked over now.

    Not the first time I've said it, but there's more than a hint of Chavanel about Stannard.

    Boonen never won this before.

    And a struggling Stannard manages to pull him back...

    Bloody hell he's brought it back. De Brit is super sterk. And now Terpstra is working him over.

    Wey hey fun times.

    Stannard with Terpstra, Boonen dangling a second or two back.

    Stannard has dropped Boonen. Just him and Terpstra now.
