    Nah, just making sure they controlled the right-hander. Bit narrow, no errors though.

    This is an example of the recent problem. Multiple teams all lined up across the road. The break has 35s. The only people who need to be at front are the leaders and those still chasing.

    Van Moer has hit out alone and taken the gap up to nearly a minute.

    This could be an almighty anti-climax for channels that have spent the entire day talking about a certain sprinter...

    Well letting a lone man from the break take it is one way to avoid mass pile ups in a rush for the bunch sprint...

    They can still crash as part of a desperate chase.
