'Dale Posted May 20, 2014 Share FDJ move to the front now and begin to set the pace on the front of the peloton. There's the odd Giant Shimano rider in the mix too but it's all blue on the front. Viviani and his teammates are just behind them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Dale Posted May 20, 2014 Share Fedi's team car pulls up to him and he takes a fresh bottle as behind and back in the bunch FDJ hunch their shoulders, lean over their bars and push on the pedals as they look to reduce the gap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Dale Posted May 20, 2014 Share The situation in the red points jersey is pretty tight at the moment but Bouhanni has the advantage due to his two stage wins. We should see the top six in that competition fight it out for the win today. 1 Nacer Bouhanni (Fra) FDJ.fr 166 pts2 Giacomo Nizzolo (Ita) Trek Factory Racing 150 3 Elia Viviani (Ita) Cannondale 139 4 Roberto Ferrari (Ita) Lampre-Merida 121 5 Ben Swift (GBr) Team Sky 92 6 Michael Matthews (Aus) Orica Greenedge 90 7 Diego Ulissi (Ita) Lampre-Merida 66 8 Cadel Evans (Aus) BMC Racing Team 60 9 Tyler Farrar (USA) Garmin Sharp 53 10 Davide Appollonio (Ita) AG2R La Mondiale 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Dale Posted May 20, 2014 Share  Bandiera leans back on the bars and takes the pressure off his lower back as Fedi sets the pace for the two leaders. Long, flat roads and little wind at the moment, with the gap at 5'57. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Dale Posted May 20, 2014 Share  The peloton head through the feedzone and there are a number of riders tucking into their lunch. Sky, Giant and Trek have all joined FDJ on the front with 71km to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
