No coverage on SS so we need to do the streaming bit again.

 

 

At least they are showing both ladies and men's Flanders next Sunday

220km remaining from 249km

And we have our break. They jumped away in ones and twos but now we have nine men out front. The lucky few are Preben Van Hecke, Dennis van Winden, Elmar Reinders, Hugo Houle, Ryan Mullen, Mark McNally, Jay Thomson, Loïc Chetout and Christophe Masson. They have a lead of just under two minutes.

Crosswinds! And immediately we have a split in the bunch thanks to the work from guess who? QuickStep Floors. They've basically split the main field in two and dropped a large section of the peloton by 30 seconds. The nine leaders have 4'30.

The gap between the first part of the peloton and the second has moved out to 40 seconds. It's far too early to tell how decisive a move this is as we've still over 180km to go but this could well be one of the most significant points in the day.

179km remaining from 249km

 

The nine leaders have just zipped through the feedzone with a four minute lead. There's a real sense that this race has come alive all of sudden and we've still got 179km to cover. Still no names from the riders in the last group on the road.

The nine leaders have seen their advantage go from six minutes to 3'15 in almost a blink of an eye. The gap between the QuickStep echelon and the second echelon is now 1'35. As soon as we have names we'll bring them to you.

160km to go and the gaps remain intact. The nine leaders have 3'15 over the QuickStep group with the rest of the field at 4'50.

The pace has eased once more and the peloton has re-grouped, bar the nine leaders who have seen their lead shoot back up. It's peaking at 7'45.

Women's race:

 

A lot of attempts but nobody has managed to ride away so far. 20 km to go!
