We kick off this year’s Tour of America with a 3.2km prologue. Who will be the first race leader?
Sebright is the first rider to complete the course, setting a benchmark time of 4’21.
Shikai finishes 2 seconds down on his time, which so far has been tied by Scarponi, Zordan and Verhelst.
Rodriguez Galindo also joins the riders tied on 4’21.
As does Nych a few riders later.
Marquez comes home 3 seconds down.
Before McConvey also ties the leading time.
Seboka loses 8 seconds.
Krul joins the 4’21 club.
Soon followed by Liphongyu.
Nerz loses 3 seconds at the finish.
Ford was one of the day’s big favourites, but he finishes 5 seconds down.
Koshevoy joins the list of 4’21 riders soon after.
Machado finishes 1 second off the pace.
Hategeka joins the pace setters on 4’21.
As does Khodayari.
Followed by Gonzalez Cortes.
Foss then sets a 4’20.
Chavanne is the overwhelming favourite today, but he finishes 2 seconds down.
Bernal then ties Foss’ time.
As does Dall'Oste.
Anguilet takes the lead with a 4’19.
Medvedev ties up the leading time.
Berhane finishes 3 seconds down.
As does Reis.
The times are analysed, and Anguilet is the stage winner! However, with all the riders within 12 seconds of the lead, chances are his spell in yellow will be short lived.
