Other teams riding in the front of the peloton in the women's race, meaning the Dutch riders haven't had to do one meter of work at the front yet. Brilliant tactics from the rest

Not 'every other team'  

 

Who is Denmark going to go for? I hope (for you/fans of Denmark) that they're not going for Dideriksen on a course that's normally simply too hard for her

That should be Ludwig all the way then.

Three Italians down in one fall. Cecchini, Balsamo and Longo Borghini. Especially bad for the first two, Longo Borghini wasn't good anyway. Megan Guarnier (USA) seems to be out, Chantal Blaak (NED) was down as well.

Finally, some action. 27km to go and after the second to last Salmon Hill climb we've got a lead group:

 

Ludwig DEN
Ferrand-Prevot FRA
Guderzo ITA
Nilsson SWE

Van der Breggen NED
Van Vleuten NED

Ensing NED

Wiles USA

King GBR

Spratt AUS

Garfoot AUS

Niewiadoma POL

 

Deignan might be on her way but doesn't look strong
