Criterium Tour

The race had to stop, and they were riding slowly with followers, as road conditions became terrible in a 12 km part after heavy rain in the last 3 days. After this compulsory slow-down, the stage was exciting as strong wind spitted the field.

Hamish Haynes – wearing yellow – almost lost his first position at this stage: he became unwell one kilometer before the finish line (stomach-ache).
