    Looks like the early break may have formed fairly quickly. Most of the small no-hoper etams like Bingoal, TotalEnergies and errrr.... Soudal Quickstep are represented. Danny "could do with a Tuk" Tuuk potato hunting

    Do put somewhere in the thread if it’s worth watching on catch up tomorrow

    I'd suggest putting it in the non-spoiler thread so you don't have to look here.

    Just switched on and slightly disappointed to find Pog hasn’t gone solo yet.

    Very cold, if I read the graphic properly earlier the maximum is about 7 degrees and lowest around 3 degrees. Commentary just said windchill is bad and what looks like rain that has just started is actually sleet.

    Some innocuous crashes

    No mercy from the front group after that bundle

    They initially thought that on ES but then there was a head on shot that showed an Arkea rider losing it on a speed bump. The parked moto didn’t cause it.

    MvdP really losing out

    This would be more interesting if MDVP and Pogacar were the other way around

    It’s good for Bernal. Pidders going for the bridge, MVDP can’t follow. Possible panic move but no other option really.

    MvdP still.got Roubaix in his legs

    Not sure what Vansevenant is up to. Why not just work smoothly with Pidcock? They’ve closed about 20” but now stalled and Gregoire has got to them.

    Not convinced by the time gaps. The VDP group look closer to the Pidcock group than Pidcock does to the lead group.

    Looks like both groups will now come back but Pidcock will have put in much more effort.

    Think he thought he was on the back of the convoy and was going for the car

    MvdP may get back too if there is a pause with pidcock making it back
