Once the race had reached the valley, the weather had improved enough to restart the race. The difficulty was gathering everyone back together. Many had ridden the descent very slowly, so that needed to get everyone massed together in order to restart the race. The other issue was recreating the gaps that had existed between the three main groups when the race was neutralized. Now, the break had restarted, with the next to go being the two guys in red, Tobias Foss and Josh Tarling (Ineos-Grenadiers) about a minute and a half minutes later. Standing with them were two riders from EF Education-EasyPost who would have to wait another minute or so to restart with the rest of the peloton. It was a mess, but no one was hurt in the icy conditions.
