Hayter cut his skin suit?

The break is all but done, 50kms from the finish.

Not letting hayter snaffle the points and bonus

He’s like a pro version of those 2nd cats that pick up loads of early season wins then stop 1 point short of a 1st cat licence to avoid having to race the big boys 😉

First time I've seen The Giro, Paris-Nice and Catalunya relegated to Cav's shoot Small Races Of course his DS only mentioned his "Cat licence issue" after two weeks of the Tour!

Hayter's race basically stops at the intermediate - after that he just needs to finish without a time-loss if he gets there first

Assuming Pog doesn't race for the stage.

There's a chance gaps open on the finish, not sure what gap-definition they're working with today - 3" I guess?

5.5km to go
31" advantage

5km rule today, and 3" gap definition

 

[No Ta Doctor]

Difficult terrain for a chase, still 30" and there's a bit more of this descent

I think he might make it....

 

[No Ta Doctor]

Get in, chapeau Ethan.

 

[mididoctors]

Well done hayter

 

[mididoctors]

Pog

 

[mididoctors]

Lol

Van Aert takes 4", so it's 11" to Ethan and Van Aert needs a gap as well as the stage win to take red.
But.... Pog could obviously take it
