    Lots of looking around. Cav has lost some ground on a corner at 5.8km to go.

    OK peloton accelerating very fast at 5.5km to go.

    Roundabount thins it out a bit but it looks ridiculously fast now.

    Cav looks well positioned. WvA nowhere to be seen.

    Ewan looks well positioned at 4km to go. Jumbo all at the front minus WvA at 4km to go.
