Anyone knows how the Orica guys came in? Gerrans first, then which riders?

Good job Chaves to manage to hang in there. Gerrans across in first as Orica GreenEDGE smash Astana by 13 seconds; a 19:26".
They had to make sure Chavez hung on, they think he can bag a top 10 here.

Katusha 2nd in the first intermediate, 7" behind Orica. Insert big faceplam here.
@SotD I can only tell you Matthews was second.

Well they said that they would wait for no one. Their main objective was to win the stage.

Easier said than done to make sure Chavez stays on the back of the train while also chasing the stage victory though. No offense to the Chavez, but you could almost stick a lot of that team on the track for a team pursuit.

Oh, VDB2.0 leading his team to the finish. Anybody got the time? Greipel at the Giro should be fun.

Clocked in at a 19:55, or +29" down on GreenEDGE's time, for Lotto Soudal at the finish.

Get out of here Contador, you're drunk...  A whole 2" faster at the intermediate check at 9.9km than GreenEDGE.

Team Katusha clock a 19:53 and provisional 8th in the end, about level with Sky then.

Contador and Basso struggling to hang on with Tinkoff, did they start too quickly?!

According to danish TV Contador went back to try and get Basso back on wheel, and normally they are pretty spot on. Especially Rolf Sørensen...

Tinkoff - Saxo clock a time of 19:33, +7 seconds down on the winning time. Pretty great overall though!
Edit #1: Cannondale - Garmin finish with a time of 20:19, some +53" down on the winning time of Orica GreenEDGE.
