After a first round in Amstel, we continue in the Ardennes with the Flèche Wallonne. It’s the same route as always, from Charleroi to the Mur de Huy. Lopez has a great team with him and is the favorite to continue his streak of 3 consecutive wins.
Evonik has to quickly organize to chase or filter the attacks. Some 2nd tier favorites’ teams are on the move, like Los Pollos, Cedevita, Jura, or UBS, but we also see Bralirwa, Gazelle or cycleYorkshire.
The peloton ( EA, Polar, Xero, Fastned, King Power, Tinkoff and Evonik) chased hard for a while, but eventually let a group of 6 go: Duric, Ryan, Kusuma, Vacek, Froidevaux and Niyonkuru.
The 6 pass the Mur (and the finish line) for the first time with a gap of 4’52. 120 km to go, and the hardest part only begins.
The first split in the peloton takes place in the innocent enough Cote de Bousalle (1,7 km, 3,1%). The main rider caught seem to be Madouas, but there are also the whole Gazelle, Indosat and Bralirwa teams, as well as Demare, Schlegel and Van Dijke.
The gap is mended, but that’s as good a warning as it gets.
2nd passage at the Mur (36 km left), and King Power is setting up Gidich. Bagioli, Lopez and Vansevenant are close.
Gidich and Mohoric attack!
Accompanied by Lopez, they get a gap of 16 seconds (and are the same time behind Ryan, the only left from the initial break).
There are still enough domestiques in the peloton to work, so they are easily brought back. 28 km and 3 climbs left; no big name is missing from the pack.
The next attack comes soon after: Carcueva drags out Higuita and Kinoshita. They quickly pass Ryan.
That goes nowhere, and King Power and Evonik try to calm things down.
They push hard in the Côte d’Amay (2,5 km, 6,3%), but that doesn’t discourage Vansevenant.
He doesn’t get a real gap, but that thins out the peloton to 146 riders with 16 km left.
Bagioli attacks from the the foot of the Côte de Villers-le-Bouillet (2,3 km, 5,5%). The Evonik guys don’t let him a chance, but the hard workers do seem cooked.
The peloton is down to 50, missing are notably Mas, Yates, Strakhov, De Plus, Formolo, Gaudu, Aleotti, Kron, Van Dijke, Kanerva, Warchol and Schlegel.
And as usual, it’s down to a fight on the Mur! (2,6 km, 9,6%).
Vansevenant led the first charge, but he’s now caught between Lopez, Gidich and Mohoric. 1,5 km left to climb.
1 km left and the slopes are at 15% now. Gidich leads with Lopez, Mohoric and Higuita.
800 m, everybody has a hard time. The gradients ease up a bit, but they’re still over 10%. Skujins and Areruya are grinding their way to the front.
400 m. Gidich still has a bike-length to Areruya and Higuita.
200 m, nobody seems to have any strength left to passe the Kazakh.
Gidich celebrates and takes the victory, a good reward for a very active team today!
After a quiet race, Areruya is 2nd, ahead of Higuita and Lopez.
Skujins still has it, he’s 5th.
It’s a good result from Aranburu in 6th, ahead of Schmid, Kinoshita, McCarthy and Mohoric.
Gidich puts and end to Lopez and Evonik domination in this race and takes his first win here!
