Wow, that profile lied! I mean, it's not a mountain stage, but it's definitely not as flat as the profile makes it seem.

Maybe they published the profile stage for Utrecht for next year

Half of Jumbo crashing

Well that was a fun stage yesterday, Cumbre del Sol was a tiny bit more selective than most people thought   

 

Today is a real flat* stage, should be for the sprinters. Wilco Kelderman has just crashed, which is later than expected...I mean, we're already in stage three and he still hadn't crashed  

 

 

*Spanish flat, so 2000+ meters of altitude change

[heywoodu 13,540]

And that's it for Kruijswijk, DNF.

 

About yesterday's stage: Bennett was by far the fastest, as expected considering the past weeks

Yeah it was the exact opposite of yesterday, when positioning sucked badly (and Jakobsen ended up behind leadout Richeze), today they brought him towards an absolute perfect position

roglič is close to his final goal allready,second overall.

great form also from pogacar

No major surprised today among the main GC contenders, Roglic, Valverde, Lopez, Pogacar were all up there. But damn, that was a cool stage!
