    Don't know whether GvA had a problem before the Muur or if he was just way too complacent.

    So there's a group of about 15, then another of ~30 and then a but of a gap to the 'peloton'.

    Boonen group looks to be working well.

    Peloton rejoins the chase group. Could do with a time check.

    G2 has 45" on the peloton. It's a selection of very, very good riders - minus GVA and Sagan.

    QS car: "There's only three riders chasing, this is a very good situation"

    Minute on the peloton now. Sky and QS could do some serious damage here.

    That makes it interesting. Vanmarke well placed.

    Now a minute. Maybe the Muur did have a role to play!

    Weird race.
    A few caught sleeping on the Muur, but Gilbert seems to be on the front.....................a lot.

    Thus is where Sagan's and GVA's team support - or lack of - comes into play.

    Direct Energie in an interesting situation here - two in the the favourites group, 1 ahead in the break.

    Yep. QS and Sky are the two teams that do the most work in these races. Astana have come to the front of the peloton.

    Kirby's commentry on the womens' sprint... disaster.... Ok he can't recognise any of the men, but for the women he just shouts the three names he knows. That sprint was all Rivera and he didnt even recognise her

    Kirby: "I think the break is doomed"

    He is an idiot - he just said Orica will be working for Keukeleire - despite him tweeting first thing he was ill and wasn't starting. Its his damn job to know one info like this.
