Cooperation and commission in the chase was stilted compared to that of the riders up the road. Only by the penultimate climb of the day, 16km from the Finish, did it seele the two group the two groups would come togeether.
Except they did. With the Gap Falling Fast, Abrahamsen Attacked. At the same time, behind, so did simmons. With all cohesion gone from both groups in an instant, it was every rider for himself. Schmid followed Abrahamsen, while Van der Poel set out to hunt down the pair on his oven.
