Every commentator, and most teammates, didn't think Caleb Ewan (Mitchelton-Scott) had a chance of taking the stage up to Stirling. They were wrong. And Ewan was followed across the line by his teammate, Daryl Impey. Third place was taken by Jay McCarthy (Bora-Hansgrohe), who was aided by none other than his teammate, the UCI Road World Champion, Peter Sagan. Sagn finished the day in fourth. In winning the stage, Ewan also pulls on the Ochre Jersey of race leader. Sagan's finish was enough to move him into second overall. Unfortunately for the virtual Ochre Jersey of William Clarke (EF Education First-Drapac) the positions of Ewan and Sagan, leave Clarke in third overall. I suspect we will seem him in the break again tomorrow.
