As the remaining trio from the break approached the red kite informing them that there was only on kilometer left to race, they were starting to size each other up. Silvan Dillier (BMC), Jasper Stuyven (Trek-Segafredo) and Lukas Postlberger (Bora-Hansgrohe) were trying to decide who had anything left, or who was going to jump first. They had to be a little careful while they slowed to play some cat and mouse, Simone Andreetta (Bardiani-CSF) wasn't too far behind them, and the peloton was closing fast on the Italian. It would be a heartbreak to come up empty handed because they were too worried about who would be on what step of the podium.
