32 km to go: Plapp, then Novak (Movistar), drop from the breakaway; while one Astana attacks from the peloton.

25 km: as those 3 are caught up, one Australian attacks from the peloton.

21 km: Buitrago attacks from the peloton, joined by 2 Movistar, it ends up building a group of 5, reduced to 4 as the last breakaway survivor drops.

6 km: their gap had reached 30 seconds but started to go down as they lost 1 Movistar.

4 km: Yates and Vine pull the peloton (why?).

0 km: another sprint, the 4^th^ in 5 stages... NB: Andresen (Decathlon) was on the podium of each of those sprints, he really deserves his Points jersey!
