Fun to see the leadout but think Riabushenko's weak acceleration meant he couldn't make it count. But at least he was competitive.
Congrats to Jaxika.

Seemed a reasonable lead-out from Scott but Thijssen not quite able to deliver. 3rd place still a decent result though and he'll try again in the one other sprint stage. Now over to Carapaz and the climbers!

Excited and fearful for this race. Could show us if we have something to be looking forward to at the end of the season or not.
Willwohl not so sharp on stage one, but a nice top10. Congrats on the win jaxika.
Let's see how the mountains go.

3rd is a very good result for Giannoutsos here, but it is a bit worrying that he was not among the 10 best going up the final climb (or so it seemed looking at the pictures). Let's hope he is strong in the upcoming stages.
Karatsivis was slightly dissapointing here, but not a disaster by any means. Let's see if Giannoutsos 3rd place will keep him closer to the front. Besides that the depth seemed good.
Brilliant win from Vauquelin here. He should be able to fight for a top 10-15 now, and already have scored a significant amount of points.

Wow, massive congratulations, kb!  Peugeot who? 
Vauquelin being absolutely magnificent. He might have unlocked the solo survival mode for Ekoi 
Also thank you for the report, Imladrik! Enjoyed the tension between the front two/Vauquelin and the group of favourites. |

Congrats KB Min in the favourites group, we’ll take that! Hopefully Gee or Girdlestone can go in the break in the next mountain stages.

Breakaway wins in the mountains are still in style! Congrats KB!
Happy Skjelmose got through that stage okay, as in theory it was the hardest one for a rider of his low stamina with so many repeat climbs. If it had been ridden harder, he could have been in trouble. A little disappointed Olivier cracked and lost so much time. I guess he can play more of a foil now, though I'm not really sure what that would look like.
I didn't really grasp just how stacked this field is until seeing the front group here. It could be a tough race even if nothing goes super wrong for us.

Fantastic win KB, congrats! Quite the escapade! Impressed that he and Van Gils were allowed to go on an early break.
Annoyed that there were no attacks, but the next stages should provide oportunities for a GC shake up. Glad to see Riccitello keep up until the penultimate climb.
