Marta Cavalli took the womens race with a well timed attack with about 2km to go. Vollering (2nd) did not look at all happy and rather unimpressed with Moolman-Pasio's failure to follow the attack.

And a real mess by the organisers who announced Cosnefoy as the winner, apparently before checking the photo finish!

That was a shocker! I thought he handled it really well - better than I would have!

Cracking finish! I'm still gutted Niewiadoma didn't win - the girl works her socks off, she needs a win.

Yeah, but his DS should remember that it is not the organisers who decide the winner, but the UCI judges who were still checking the photo!
Ag2r DS, Julien Jurdie, said he heard it on Radio Tour and told Cosnefroy. Certainly, the guy at the finish in the Amstel Gold jacket standing between the two riders did not appear to say anything to Cosnefroy to prompt the celebrating. Cosnefroy has been reported as criticising the race jury, but his comments seem somewhat confused, maybe because they were made during the post-race confusion.

Demi Vollering didn't take any chances today in Brabantse Pijl. Dropped everyone with 10km to go and took the win.
Evenepoel is being a nobber in the men's race.

The jury has given Remco an official warning after the push to Ben Turner

Well done to Magnus Sheffield for the attacks! Yet again, the chasers looked at each other while the win disappeared up the road. Maybe it's more arguable today, gambling on the lone breakaway cracking on the final climb and not wanting to give his two ineos teammates in the chasers an easy ride, but it's really not a great way to lose. Is there an outbreak of indecision in the peloton?

Class teamwork from Ineos.....too strong,challenged the others to close them down and they couldnt.Im not too sure about Remco,I'm giving him the benefit of doubt at the moment.Hot headed at best.
