3 Tejay van Garderen (USA) BMC Racing Team

Voigt 自2010 年以來的首勝！ 恭迎單飛王歸位！！！


就在BMC 抨擊RSNT 消極的比賽之後，他們終於放出老狼咬人

一開賽Jens Voigt 就帶著一票兔子出去了！Peter Stetina & Lachlan Morton (Garmin-Sharp); Rafael Infantino & Camilo Castiblanco (EPM-Une); Johann Tschopp & Ivan Santaromita (BMC); Carter Jones & Julian Kyer (Bissell Pro Cycling); Rory Sutherland & Chris Jones (UnitedHealthcare); Roman Kreuziger (Astana); Craig Lewis (Champion Systems); Rubens Bertogliati (Team Type 1-Sanofi); Andres Diaz (Team Exergy)


Peloton 眼看這麼多兔子出去也樂得輕鬆，控制住就好了


在Independence Pass 之前，兔子已經拉開3：40 優勢

但，Voigt 覺得路還是太擠了，攻！甩掉其他兔子單飛


Peloton 接著也端出河蟹便當請兔子享用


唉呀...Voigt 成能成什麼氣候...peloton把時差縮小到2：40

沒想到來了陣大雨，拖住peloton，Voigt 又趁機把差距又拉大至4min


Peloton 佈局，爾虞我詐

Voigt 再加速，時差擴大至5：55

Voigt 享受甜美的單飛勝...整場都看我演


賽後他表示：I was nervous until basically 1 km to go. And then my director came up and said, 'You still have five minutes.' That looks pretty safe then. So I had a little time to slow down a little bit and enjoy it, you know, wave to the crowd and soak up the emotions.
