Sporza saying actually 15 seconds..

shirley_basso

200m gap apparently.

pottssteve

Chasers picking up the pace

Or maybe not...

shirley_basso

Terpstra looking laboured now. Chasers pushing on.

pottssteve

Here we go

shirley_basso

Great racing

pottssteve

Gilbert marking solely GVA

pottssteve

12 seconds

shirley_basso

Moscon on the wheel but didn't really look threatening. Speed now increasing from the chasers. 12s

Benoot looks so good on a bike and has worked like a dog all day;

pottssteve

Terpstra rocking and rolling a bit

bigmat

Think he's got this.

shirley_basso

I am inclined to say it's going to be Terpstra

shirley_basso

Attacks need to be full gas, no letting up or its all over.

pottssteve

But the gap goes up as they beat each other up behind

RonB

No-one putting in a big attack so this could be a sprint for 2nd

shirley_basso

I am starting to get all Carlton Kirby but this is exciting.

ocdupalais

Gaaah... not Twerpstra...

I'm inclined to agree at this rate.

Good man. Well played QS. An absolute blinder.

Furious at the chasing group, but what can you do?

bigmat

What on earth were they playing at those last 4km?! Hat to Terpstra though.

Vino'sGhost

monster effort by terpstra aided by gilbert and stiybar that was great

blazing_saddles

Boonen gone but the Quick Step stranglehold of the classics is just as tight.

pottssteve

What was all that about? Not happy with the marshall?

shirley_basso

Almost better for QS that Boonen has gone as they are all so strong they can't watch every rider!
