"First we need to do 233km. It's not an easy race. We expect a lot of attacks and we will find out that happens...the condition is there. We just need the luck today. I feel good."

There's the break at a minute

 

Then in the attacking group, Dillier is there from BMC after hanging off the front for a while. He has been joined by Parrinello, Mondory and Grivko.

30 secs to the chasing group

55 secs from the peloton to the break

 

50 kms to go

 

The intensity in the peloton is palpable now.

More than 180 kms raced already!

Touch of wheels at the back!

A few riders have dismounted.

None of the favourites though as they are all near the front.
