Kolobnev, Scheunemann, Belohvosckics, Velo, Florencio, Delage and Zampieri.
Velo won 2 intermediate sprints, Florencio took 1. Florencio also took the KoM points but Cyalogic kept the KoM jersey with Celestino.
Amazingly, the peleton failed to chase the whilke break down as Florencio and Delage still had a healthy advantage.
Florencio left Delage for dead, taking the stage win and the leaders jersey.
Delage completely faded though, so McEwen took 2nd ahead of Dumoulin to take the points jersey. Bennati and Davis were right up there but race leader Freire completely missed the boat and finished 18th.
