Wheel sucking to some, great tactical riding to others. I said earlier in the thread that at least he didn't have to do any work. The threat of Vanmarcke charging hard behind meant EQS had to ride hard, Stannard just ride their train.
But he still had to win. So coolly he responded to Boonen's attack at 4.6k, he didn't even get out the saddle. Weird that Vandenburgh covered Terpstra's attack, made it easy for Stannard to follow.
