Full Gas TDU18-15
It appeared that Caleb Ewan (Mitchelton-Scott) and his team out smarted themselves. As their train came to the line, Ewan and his leadout man, Alexander Edmondson, had opened a gap on the rest of the field. It appeared that Ewan decided that the gap was enough that he could let Edmondson take the victory (a thank you to his hard work for the team and himself). What he didn't see when he looked both left and right, was the fast closing Elia Vivianni (Quick Step). Once Ewan saw is error, he just wasn't able to wind his sprint up, to the full gas Viviani was applying. Out of the edge of this painting, Phil Bauhaus (Sunweb) got aroung the Ochre Jersey of Ewan as well. Viviani played it perfectly, and got to salute the crowd in true sprinter fashion.
