Britain race report from DS Matt White
With an early break up the road, we decided to work with LPR to real it in. Trent (right) rode for 100 km on the front to keep the break within striking distance to give Julian a chance to go head to head with Petacchi. Then the rain came and so did the crashes.
Julian crashed 20 km to go and the race was split in pieces!
The final was dangerous and technical, and a split in the final saw Dan move into 3rd on GC! Tomorrow is a solid day and we will make the stage as hard as possible so Dan can attack and try to go clear. It will be our last chance to roll the dice!
