Yes, last year Evan was gaining on Kraig it looked like he would pass for a while, but then he drifted back. Equally close as this year overall I'd say. I remember skinny and Sofiane in Italy Divide was fun to dotwatch, but obviously much shorter course! Wish I had been following when Mike and Kristof were competing too.

It looks like Kraig always had it under control. Might have been able to pull out a bit more if Ben had got closer.
It's really rare there is a late stage catch in these events. TCR 2018 is the memorable one from a racing point of view (@skinny reeling in Bjorn Leonard). TABR 2016 was dramatic but because Steffen Streich self-destructed and went the wrong way.
Is this closer than TABR last year?
Edit - yes it probably is, 6.5 hours was the winning margin, although ISTR it was closer than that at a couple of points.
