The first attacks ended with a 8, there is nothing dangerous for the general. These are Swift (ineos), Guernalec (Arkéa), Albanese (EF Education), Leknessund (One-X), Moniquet (Cofidis), Dion Smith (Intemrché), Gachignard (Total Energy) and Planckaert (Alpecin).

Visma assumes the role of directing persecution in honor of its leader, keeping the bay escape all the time, until the rest comes after a few minutes of severe storms that have changed the road conditions and producing some accidents on race vehicles. The organization decided to neutralize the test after the canon level (3.5 km at 6.5).
