'Dale Posted May 14, 2014 Share Results of the intermediate sprint. Â Swift won it ahead of Viviani and Farrar. That makes Swift the new virtual red jersey.

'Dale Posted May 14, 2014 Share The strong wind has slowed the speed of the race, with the riders currently 15 minutes behind the slowest schedule, meaning the stage could end after 5:30 local time.

'Dale Posted May 14, 2014 Share With Kittel out of the race the fight for the points jersey could well come down to Swift and Viviani. Both riders will be on the hunt for the stage today as well. Both riders know each other so well from their track racing back grounds as well.

'Dale Posted May 14, 2014 Share The wind continues though, it's very blustery out there at the moment and it's likely to stay like that all day. We've 97km to go and the 11-man break have Orica GreenEDGE leading the chase.

'Dale Posted May 14, 2014 Share Savio is now driving alongside his man in the break, offering him some advice. He'll be relying that the peloton are coming back. The peloton have slowed again though and the gap to the break moves back out to 3'20.

'Dale Posted May 14, 2014 Share Matthews has been in pink for a few days now but today there's bit of extra pressure on him as he's targetted today's finish. He's got the form, and his result in his first Amstel Gold earlier in the spring - he cracked the top 20 - shows that he has the staying power.
