    Pross - it was under a minute 20 mins ago - long chase by Demare

    Cheers, I saw it referred to as race defining and thought that was in relation to the overall so thought a few GC contenders had got into the break.

    Zakarin must be a nightmare to ride for.

    This is going to come back together. Too early to be attacking in the break with the peloton closing fast.

    Covid-19 is ripping through the event. I’m just surprised the TdF got to the end. J.V. are gone, Yates has gone, I’d be massively surprised if we get to week 3.

    Swift is a revelation. To me at least.

    I don't trust these time gaps. They seem to be all over the place.

    I was thinking more about his propensity for being on the wrong side of every split in the peloton.

    His best form in several years, it's a shame he isn't riding the Classics.

    sagan looks to be flagging but maybe just thinking. Looks wet on the roads.

    3 climbs in the next 12kms or so then it's a nice wet descent and a sodden finish line.
