Sorry, this appears to be out of focus. So it goes. It may be a good representation of how these guys felt as they came over the Col du Hundsruck, the third of seven catagorized climbs on the day. Tim Wellens (Lotto Soudal) was a bit annoyed with Natnael Behane (Cofidis) sprinting to gain maximum points on the climb. Wellens was doing his best to amass as many KOM points ahead of the big mountain stages. The third across the line was Giulio Ciccone (Trek-Segafredo). Due to the large gap the break had on the peloton, Ciccone was the virtual yellow jersey on the road. However, there is a lot of road yet to be covered today.
