It's a long one in the conditions, the groups behind are putting in power (though MvdP looks like he's not up to doing it himself), he's got a chance. I don't think he's certain.

Would be a pretty on-brand move though. Win an absolute gently caress of a classic -> leave team.

Turns out the only reason everyone had caught back up with ineos was the disc brakes

I'm guessing it's gonna require at least three baths to feel somewhat clean after this.

It's the four days of hydration fluids and BRAT foods that'll be the fun. Much harder to clean your insides.

The danish commentators were talking about some of the riders from the race yesterday being hosed down by pressure washers, so I wouldn't be surprised.

He looks hosed to be fair. Thats the face of a man who went past the limit 10k ago.

He lost ~20 seconds, I think.
So the big question now is: Is it a benefit to have a bike that's fresh oil on the chain?

Think most of group 2 were in the earlier break groups so haven't had 250km of riding in the spray of a 50+ rider bunch

a little more than that in the end, right?

as to the possible benefit, idk how much the power savings matter with only 30 km left but it must feel so good once you get back your rhythm (getting off has got to suck though)
