Almost the same profile like yesterday's mountain stage... but this time, the other way round: 94km in total, no intermediates, this one should be one for the sprinters.
Will Aberasturi repeat his victory from the opener? Or will Greipel bounce back this time?
4 riders build the break of the day: Passeron, Bikienga, Garcia and Eyob.
No real threat for the GC, so they are allowed to go for 3'45"-gap as we almost reach the second half of this stage.
Stretched field? Yes, some strong crosswinds (35kmh) make this day much harder than it was expected to be:
20km before finish, the hard chasing bunch (the gap is cut down to 1'10" thanks to Privatbank, Bacardi and Quickstep setting the pace) goes into pieces with only 49 riders remaining in the first group!
Most notable victims of this split(s) so far: Stetina (13th in GC) and Niyonshuti (22nd), who find themselves in the first major bunch being dropped! They will definitely lose some time today!
More GC-contenders got caught in this split: Gadret (20th) and Elissonde try to hang on, but this will be a difficult challenge.
Also some sprinters involved: Vanderaerden, Abdallah, Sonnery, Brea or Coquard as the most notable!
This major splits would favor the early escapees, it seems: 6.5km to go and their gap grows back to 1'25" with Eyob trying to solo away from his companions!
4km to go and yes, the first peloton is still 1'30" in arrears and won't pull the escapees back:
Passeron counters Eyob's move and is the next of the escapees to go for a solo-attempt!
He opened up a decent gap quickly, but with less than 2km remaining, Garcia launches his move trying to bridge this gap..
..and he catches up on the finishing stretch! The two are head-to-head with the line approaching... a thrilling finish!
Garcia takes it! What a close decision, bad luck for Passeron.. 31" later, Bikienga completes the podium ahead of Eyob.
1'33" later, the first peloton sprints for the final Top-5 spot, which is taken by Granjel Cabrera ahead of Abarasturi. This will give Cabrera the provisional lead in the points competition.
Group Gadret/Elissonde would lose 4'02" eventually, while group Stetina would cross the line at 6'12"! So the mentioned riders, as well as some other minor GC-contenders, lost some ground today. Tough luck.
Marquez enters the final day as the GC-leader though. With just 8" on Kiserlovski and 26" on Intxausti, there's still some work to do on that hilly stage. Especially Kiserlovski may hope for his skills on short climbs to pay off.
