Stage 6 is a 12 km TTT. The favourites are Metinvest-Emirates and Bouygues Telecom, hunting a 6th successive stage.
First up are MTN. It was a blow for Niyonshuti to get droppedy yesterday, although they still have JC Nel in the Top 10.
Bpost came here for the cobbles, and it is clearly going to be damage limitation today. At least those cobbles are getting closer!
Kessiakoff is here for WWE, despite the flat nature of the race in general, perhaps with this stage in mind? Gripel lies 3rd overall, so they will want to defend that.
HTC's best rider overall is Wouter Wippert in 11th, they have had a fairly quiet race so far.
Kenya Airways are hunting points wherever they can, and have the Kenyan time trial champion Hussein on show here.
Defending champion Tomas Vaitkus leads AirBaltic-Endura, he hasnt looked like winning a stage yet this year though.
ING seem to be focusing their efforts on the intermediate sprints rather than the stage finishes, ever since Kip narrowly missed out on the Stage 2 win. It is unconventional, but seems to be working, with Kip 2nd in GC and the Points classification. Can they keep him up there?
A colourful set up for PFG-Armavia with best young rider and 5th overall Robert Gavenda, plus Israeli TT champion Dor Dviri. They are in a battle with WWE for the bottom spot in PCT.
UPC still hope to avoid relegation. 6th overall for Tom Veelers would be very helpful for them, but they need to ride well today to keep him there.
For Die Berg Komt Er, it is a case of how well can Rick Flens drag them to a good result.
Bouygues Telecom! The unbeatables? Stage 1 winner Hugues Mottin will provide the fire here, along with Tony Martin. Can they further extend Roelandts' GC lead?
Finally Metinvest-Emirates. Last off because they narrowly won the teams classification in Stage 1 - a good sign for today? They are good at TTTs with the likes of Ma, Lang and Lagkuti leading the team. Andriy Vasylyuk is well placed at 4th overall, they will hope to move him up higher.
Through the first checkpoint at 6km, the halfway point, and it is very tight indeed!
1 airBaltic - Endura 8'34 2 PFG-Armavia + 0 3 Team UPC - Boehringer-Ingelheim + 0 4 Die Berg Komt Er + 0 5 Bouygues Telecom + 0 6 Team WWE + 1 7 Metinvest-Emirates + 3 8 Kenya Airways - Barclays + 6 9 HTC Niewsblad + 10 10 Team Bpost + 10 11 MTN - World Bycicle Relief + 11 12 ING Cycling Project + 11
But already it is clear that the critical section of the course is the 2nd half, with much bigger gaps at the finish for the 6 teams already there.
Kenya Airways overturned a slower start to lead - 10 seconds up on halfway leaders airBaltic.
1 Kenya Airways - Barclays 16'52 2 Team WWE + 6 3 airBaltic - Endura + 10 4 MTN - World Bycicle Relief + 13 5 HTC Niewsblad + 14 6 Team Bpost + 24
PFG-Armavia come through to take the new best time. Faster than Kenya Airways by the smallest of margins, less than a second!
And they still lead with only 2 teams remaining. UPC slotted in to 3rd place at 7 seconds behind them.
But now it is Bouygues, and Tony Martin leading them to the finish line.
They take 1st place, beating Armavia by 10 seconds.
Can Metinvest respond? Lagkuti brings them over the line. It is going to be close!
1 second in it!
Bouygues Telecom have won AGAIN.
