    Gallopin drops out of the chase group with a mechanical. RadioShack-Nissan is really having no luck today.

    Paolini has been caught, and Sagan is now at 21 seconds.

    Popovych leads the small chasing group, and they will get Sagan soon.

    The three leaders are stll working well together, but keeping a wary eye on each other as well.

    Sagan gives up and falls back into the field.

    Ordinarily one would pick Boonen, but he had some problems on that last climb. Will he be missing that last little bit he needs to win a sprint?

    Who is the better sprinter, Ballan or Boonen?

    The three leaders are all taking turns with the lead work, doing perfect tradeoffs.

    Anther potential disadvantage for Boonen is that he is up against two Italians. Would they have a motivation to work together against him?

With 3km, Ballan tries to go. The others were right there with him, though.

Pozzato leads, and slows thigns down. So Ballan jumps immediately. All go with him under the last km marker.

It is too obvious to Ballan that he has no chance and he hangs back.

Boonen takes it!

You win !

 

I've never been a huge Boonen fan, but I was rooting for him here. I can't wait for Roubaix...
