Van der Poel opening up the final push after Orchies!

Philipsen bringing down Degenkolb, Van Aert reacts by attacking, Van der Poel follows and sees Van Aert getting a flat tyre. That was some super intense Carrefour as always, but it's most likely done now.

Degenkolb appealing to the refs, I’m sure.

Yeah, Philipsen might take care to not celebrate his 2nd place too hard yet

Anyhow, very much deserved win for VdP, basically the only rider to constantly attack from early on (although Van Aert had two good moments as well). Always +1 for attacking riders taking the win

Will be out for a few weeks under the new concussion protocols, I think.

Wow, Team Alpecin must have consulted Cavendish for their dirty move on Degenkolb.
