Holding Their Advantage PN20-2
After the crosswinds had split the peloton apart, this rather elite group of sixteen guys continued to press their advantage over the chasing peloton. Leading the effort were two domestiques Kasper Asgreen (Deceuninck-Quick Step) and Connor Swift (Arkea Samsic). One of the favorites to make the split was Nairo Quintana on his new team Arkea Samsic. With 38 kilometers left to race they were hoping to grow their 30 second advantage. Those behind were doing all they could to prevent that from happening.
