Were should Richeze go. Vaporize himself ?
Ewan just made a bad choice and got stuck behind him.

Nope Richeze did look over shoulder did see Gaviria and he had a made decision.
Block Gaviria to barriers.or shoulder Ewan to get enough room for Gaviria ride true the gap between barriers and himself |

Just seen the replay fairly routine victory. Don't know why Ewan was expecting Richeze to go all the way. Fairly obvious hes gonna stop once he sees him behind him |

He spent around 150 meters purposely looking back at Ewan and blocking his path, and then when Gaviria came past he opened up. He isn't even spriting, just man marking. |

Ewan actually used Richeze as lead-out man !!!
and couldn't get around him.
The vapors of the rocket from Gaviria just disturbed the air I think. Richeze and Ewan just got tangled in the afterburning effects

Most impressive rider in the race thus far for me! Based off his U23 results i had not expect to see anything from him and yet he's got 6 Top10's.
Really hope he can push on from this in the rest of the year and give the peloton another great African presence.

So okay, maybe Gaviria is not that bad. I'm still not believing it |

Ewan can blame only himself, he should have been elsewhere...

Really crappy positioning from Greipel again...bummer.
Gaviria's sprint was really impressive tho.
But Spilak23 I think you made a typo there, should be:
