The early break away of Fabio Felline (Astana-Qazaqstan) and Mikkel Honore (EF Education-EasyPost) seemed to have reached a deal as they rode off the front of the peloton. Honore had taken the first of the King of the Mountain climbs, and left it to Felline to take each of the two intermediate sprints out on the road. So as the pair came through the Williamstown, the few fans on the side of the road didn't actually get to see them sprint it out. However, there was a real effort for the final bonus second when the peloton came through about three and a half minutes later.
