    Looks like the peloton themselves are slowing down the pace

    I think they have to catch the break and then they'll neutralise the race. Will we still have the sprint to determine the yellow jersey?

    Ewan over 6 minutes back.

    Nizzolo looks like he broke or dislocated something.

    I think Nizzolo's demise was called a bit early. Looks like he's getting back on.

    Sam is the fastest man out there , if he gets a clear run and times it well I can't see anyone stopping him but it's one dodgy unpredictable day out there.
