    Rory Townsend made the break of the day, 8 of them with a small gap which looks like it could be the one.

    All the pressure on Wout, but look at the strength in the danish and slovenian teams, as well as Italy. Also, the question of Evanepoel and if he goes off-script is intriguing...gonna be an interesting few hours!

    Magnificent racing so far. If you ever had Notions of duking it out with Pro Cyclists, this the one that will put you in your box.

    Apparently 2 of the Irish lads have dropped out according to PCS, I'm guessing it's Eddie Dunbar that's left.

    Haven't seen him at all today though.

    Also, I didn't know that the race started in 'Antwerpaa' earlier. Amazing.

    As for the race, it's amazing stuff. How many will make it to the final lap? And we spotted Kristoff there a few km ago. Now if it started lashing rain now, he would be my man

    Crowds look amazing.

    I have to say it's the racing that makes a course, I enjoyed the racing over the week but thought the course wasn't all that. Today it's a completely different story.

    What happened to Morhoric, looked like either he completely blew or had gear problems.
