    Groenewegen wins again, dan loses 1.15.
    They got back to about 35s behind with 5k to go, then moscon and sky came to the front and tore it up for 1k, gap went out to 50s+

    Lost 1m15 in the end. They managed to get back to 30s before the sprint teams took it up

    Possibly means Dan may have a chance at another stage win given he won't be a major threat on GC at this stage.

    Will Gaviria face action over his antics in the sprint?

    Yeah, probably puts paid to a serious assault on the overall with another 30k+ TT to come.. Hopefully he can still get a good place finish and pick up another stage along the way... His tour is already a success after the other day anyway
