Stage 3 to Novi Ligure is another one for the sprinters. A Top 3 finish would be enough for either Guarnieri or Groenewegen to take the Maglia Rosa. All of the other sprinters will be hoping to get into the Top 2 in their place though, as there are not a lot of opportunities for them in this race.
A breakaway of three quickly formed:
Alexis Gougeard
Iberia - Team Degenkolb
Pim Ligthart
Hugo Boss
Mikhail Kochetkov
Nemiroff - ABBYY
Ligthart shone in the opening time trial, but got himself dropped on Stage 2.
Gougeard only managed to pick up 2 KoM points in the breakaway yesterday, despite being the strongest climber. Today there is an even bigger gap in climbing skill between him, and the rest of the breakaway, and he has no problem winning both climbs. Thus, he will move into the lead of the competition.
Kochetkov and Ligthart shared 2nd places, to go joint 3rd overall.
Once again Puma, Spotify and Strava lead the peloton - the faith is being kept in Ciolek and Ahlstrand, along with Guarnieri.
The gap was down to a minute with 20km to go, as Gougeard attacks the breakaway and goes solo.
There's suddenly a lull in the peloton, and the gap jumps out to 2 minutes. Finally Lövkvist recognises the danger, and starts driving the gap down to 1'30 approaching the final 10 kilometres.
Huge crash in the peloton!
Identified are the following, but there may have been a couple more:
Olivier
Laengen
Te Brake
Coquard
Formolo
De Luna
Morton
O'Shea
Zhupa
Roelandts
Ewan
Reis
Silva
Avelino
Kragh Andersen
Fonseca
König
Egger
There seems to be two simultaneous incidents. On one side it is Zhupa and Olivier, and the other side it is O'Shea, Morton and Groenewegen. GC riders mixing with the sprinters then, with Morton, Olivier, Reis and Konig the Top GC riders involved, with a number of sprinters from Groenewegen, Avelino, Coquard, Ewan and Roelandts to lead out men Fonseca and Kragh Anderson. Particularly bad for Aegon, Porto and Jayco then - surely not another Italian disaster for Morton?
Bol tried to keep the peloton going, reducing the gap to 1'15, but without finding much support - the crash having disrupted an already badly organised peloton.
Gougeard leads by 1'30, gap going up, with just 3km to go.
Hermans is up alongside Bol, while the foremost lead-out as such is Bonnin for Howard. Ignatiev and Cattaneo are also well placed.
Ciolek leads the other sprinters a little further back, with Ahlstrand, Petit, Vesely, Grosu and Guarnieri nearby - but nobody to properly lead them out.
Eventually Van Poppel decides to go off on a long sprint, and catch out everybody else.
The stage win is long gone though. Alexis Gougeard has benefited in part from circumstance, but may have been difficult to catch regardless. He takes the clean sweep, winning the stage, gaining the Maglia Rosa, and also leading the Points, KoM and U25 classifications!
Chasing after Van Poppel are teammate Grosu, as well as Howard.
Other sprinters are not too far behind, but it is enough for Van Poppel to cling on to 2nd place, and Howard finish closely behind in 3rd.
It's then Ahlstrand in 4th from Vesely, Guarnieri, Zabel and Ciolek.
No time losses for the crashes, except for Laengen, who caught the tail end of the crash and was already suspected to be struggling with an injury from the previous stage. There'll be some bruised bodies going into the TTT though, if nothing worse.
