Under the Flame Rouge
The Flame Rouge or the Red Kite, marks the final kilometer of the day's racing. Liege-Bastogne-Liege featured about a kilometer of climbing before the kite and kept going up after the leaders passed under its welcoming sight. Domenico Pozzovio (AG2R) and Giampaolo Caruso (Katusha), both climbers, got away on the final climb of the day and were doing well holding off the attacking peloton, although these two were within sight of the angry swarm of riders who each nursed hopes of claiming the victory at the line.
