I am beginning to wonder if Alpecin-Deceuninck has decided that they will put a different teammate into the Maillot a Pois on every stage. I guess the math wouldn't work for that. The Queen of the Mountains at the start of the stage was Yara Kastelijn, but with this long solo break away, Julie Van de Velde was now the Queen virtually. Since the Cote de Saint Robert is the final claim of the day, assuming she finishes the stage, the Polka Dot Jersey will change from her teammates shoulders to hers. Now with a twenty-eight second lead on the peloton, can she also add a stage victory to her efforts today?
