Team Work TDU19-9
EF Education First was using some true team tactics today. James Whelan had been out in the break all day. Two guys jumped out of the peloton and bridged across to the original break, each had a teammate to join up with. As the original group slowly fell apart, Whelan was able to press on helping his fresh legged teammate, Alberto Bettiol. The duo put everything they had into the difficult final circuits around Uraidla. The effort was most likely doomed, but it allowed the rest of the team to "rest" back in the chasing peloton.
