97 are ready for the start of the 'Hell of the West'. But the amount of cobbled sections is lower during this 199 km trip then during the 'Hell of the North'. Two clear favourites in i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/bcr_zps86f2c872.png Steegmans and i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/abc_zps288913e0.png Maes.

i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/cre_zps8fb855ae.png Clarke initiates the first attack of the day. i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PCT/luk_zps37d4ab7e.png Pibernik, i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/ekc_zps98eb3bbc.png Valiausa, i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/reg_zpsf2e631b7.png Watson, i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PCT/htc_zps6bfb639a.png Van der Lijke, i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/vtf_zps1d97281a.png Ranneries and i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/dbg_zps356cc31d.png Giorgieri jump in his wheel.

i1199.photobucket.com/albums/aa477/Spilak23/mangame5_zpsef792464.jpg

Right on the first of 4 cobbled sections, the break is brought back in the peloton. The Allianz team did all the work there probably thinking that a break of 7 is too big in a smaller field like this. Too cobbles itself did not play any role in the peloton. Everyone easily stays together.

i1199.photobucket.com/albums/aa477/Spilak23/mangame6_zps5d266c33.jpg

More attacks came but only 4 riders could create a decent gap. One again i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/cre_zps8fb855ae.png Clarke and i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/reg_zpsf2e631b7.png Watson. They are accompanied by i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/pvb_zpsc75e654c.png Buts and i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PCT/htc_zps6bfb639a.png Van der Schueren. When their gap growes over 3 minutes, we can conclude this will be the break of the day.

i1199.photobucket.com/albums/aa477/Spilak23/mangame7_zpsad13c514.jpg

We enter the second cobbled section of the day. It's the longest aswell at 1.3 km which is nothing compared to more famous sections around Roubaix. Leading the peloton over are Allianz with two guys while Gazelle, Banco Nacional, Vattenfall and Ekspla also have a rider in the relay train. The breaks advantage is at about 5'30 with still more as 100 km to go.

i1199.photobucket.com/albums/aa477/Spilak23/mangame8_zpsae9739ef.jpg

50 km to go as the escapees pass the days only 'hill' which is not even 500 m long. The peloton is just under 3 minutes behind at that point as Banco Nacional and Allianz started cooperating to bring the break closer.

i1199.photobucket.com/albums/aa477/Spilak23/mangame9_zps953bd71e.jpg

In fact a combined 11 guys from these two teams are now relaying. That means all i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/bcr_zps86f2c872.png Steegmans' domestiques are now working while i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/abc_zps288913e0.png Maes only keeps his supder domestique i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/abc_zps288913e0.png Coyot. He could play a very important role later on.

i1199.photobucket.com/albums/aa477/Spilak23/mangame10_zpsf9d4b43a.jpg

Less then 20 km to go and the breaks advantage is just over 2 minutes. The chase behind is not bringing results so far and thing start to look good for the break. That is the sign for i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/reg_zpsf2e631b7.png Watson to put in an attack. i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PCT/htc_zps6bfb639a.png Van der Schueren immediatly jumps in his wheel while the other two stay calm and keep relaying.

i1199.photobucket.com/albums/aa477/Spilak23/mangame11_zpsdcd7b3c2.jpg

Only i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PCT/htc_zps6bfb639a.png Van der Schueren got away though and with 10 km to go, he is 25 seconds in front of his three companions from earlier. His talent on the cobbles is clearly a bit better then the three others so it will be tough for them to come back.

i1199.photobucket.com/albums/aa477/Spilak23/mangame28_zpsd268e466.jpg

i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/bcr_zps86f2c872.png Steegmans senses the danger and attacks. Jumping in his wheel are:

i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/abc_zps288913e0.png Coyot.
This is definatly an important move.

i1199.photobucket.com/albums/aa477/Spilak23/mangame12_zps46213d08.jpg

No surprise that this attack sticks. The 5 start to cooperate. Behind them a second chase group from 3 forms.

Time for an overview at the 10 km mark.

It seems like it's over for the pack as there is no pace at all and they are quickly losing more time.

i1199.photobucket.com/albums/aa477/Spilak23/mangame13_zpseef99192.jpg

The escapees enter the penultimate cobbled section. A strong pull from i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/pvb_zpsc75e654c.png Buts has i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PCT/htc_zps6bfb639a.png Van der Schueren as good as caught. A good try from the Belgian nevertheless. It will be important for them to continue cooperating with the favourites now coming behind.

i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/gzl_zps14c119b5.png Sentjens, i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/bvp_zps98bbf78a.png Grashev and i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/ekc_zps98eb3bbc.png Striska are about to catch up to the chase group when Steegmans and Machado. Let's see how many energy they have left after a short chase.

i1199.photobucket.com/albums/aa477/Spilak23/mangame15_zps109ae601.jpg

5 kms to go and it seems like the cobbled section was too much for the escapees. Their pace was much lower as behind and i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/bcr_zps86f2c872.png Steegmans and i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PCT/prp_zps2240497e.png Machado attack past them. They lost almost 2' over only 5 kms which is really much.

i1199.photobucket.com/albums/aa477/Spilak23/mangame16_zpsb99fee35.jpg

The attack doesn't lead much further so all small groups come together. These 12 riders will sprint for the win today. Worth noting is that the last 600 metres are cobbled so going early might not be the right tactic here. The 12 names one more time.

i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/abc_zps288913e0.png Maes is in the worst position sitting at the front but when he starts his sprint, only i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/pvb_zpsc75e654c.png Buts jumped in his wheel. i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/bcr_zps86f2c872.png Steegmans is sitting in 3rd but he is also sprinting in the wind already but he doesn't have to look behind as no one is in his wheel.

i1199.photobucket.com/albums/aa477/Spilak23/mangame18_zps30aeca22.jpg

The sprint is about to enter the final kilometre and i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/pvb_zpsc75e654c.png Buts has jumped out of i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/abc_zps288913e0.png Maes' wheel. i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/bcr_zps86f2c872.png Steegmans couldn't really come much closer but on the other side i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/abc_zps288913e0.png Coyot is coming strong. i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/dbg_zps356cc31d.png Ostergaard is not much further behind while the others are having more problems. Tired from closing that last gap or from being in the break all day.

i1199.photobucket.com/albums/aa477/Spilak23/mangame19_zpsa01a0b39.jpg

We start the last cobbled section and Buts has created a good gap. The chasing three are on one line fighting for the podium. They could still hope for more cause they are talented over these cobbles which is hard to say about i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/pvb_zpsc75e654c.png Buts.

i1199.photobucket.com/albums/aa477/Spilak23/mangame20_zpsea492cd2.jpg

i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/dbg_zps356cc31d.png Ostergaard is still holding on to his 5th position but i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PCT/prp_zps2240497e.png Machado, i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/ekc_zps98eb3bbc.png Striska and i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/bvp_zps98bbf78a.png Grashev are coming closer. It seems like i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/gzl_zps14c119b5.png Sentjens is looking for some place to come out of Grashevs wheel. The other 3 who were part of the early break will fight for the last spot inside the top 10.

i1199.photobucket.com/albums/aa477/Spilak23/mangame21_zps428c9f0b.jpg

i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/pvb_zpsc75e654c.png Buts takes a surprising win. He is definatly not a cobbler but rode smart and had a good day. He clearly had much more energy left as the other three wo were in the break all day.

i1199.photobucket.com/albums/aa477/Spilak23/mangame22_zpsba2ddfa6.jpg

i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/bcr_zps86f2c872.png Steegmans takes another second place as the sprint for the last podium spot was really close. Teammates i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/abc_zps288913e0.png Coyot and i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/abc_zps288913e0.png Maes have to wait for the Finish Photo which gives Coyot the edge over his leader.

i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/dbg_zps356cc31d.png Ostergaard takes 5th with i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/ekc_zps98eb3bbc.png Striska, i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/bvp_zps98bbf78a.png Grashev, i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PCT/prp_zps2240497e.png Machado, i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/gzl_zps14c119b5.png Sentjens and i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/cre_zps8fb855ae.png Clarke rounding out the top 10 in that order. Late attackers i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/reg_zpsf2e631b7.png Watson and i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PCT/htc_zps6bfb639a.png Van der Schueren finish 11th and 12th.

i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/dbg_zps356cc31d.png Abakoumov wins the peloton sprint 5 minutes after the winner. Riders like i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/gzl_zps14c119b5.png Vangenechten and i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/ekc_zps98eb3bbc.png Stevenson could have been expected to do better but they both had a teammate upfront. i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/vtf_zps1d97281a.png Vattenfall, i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/CT/fcb_zpse1da305d.png Barcelona and i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq112/Gustavovskiy/microjerseys/PCT/luk_zps37d4ab7e.png LukOil were neither in the break nor the late attacks and couldn't make the screen all day.


Result


i1199.photobucket.com/albums/aa477/Spilak23/mangame25_zps5e40bf39.jpg

A big win for Team Privatbank. They don't really have any notable cobbles but the gamble of starting here clearly payed off.
