A reminder about who's in that breakaway group ...
Lieuwe Vestra (Netherlands), Stuart O'Grady (Australia), Janez Brajkovic (Slovenia), Denis Menchov (Russia), Jurgen Roelandts (Belgium), Marco Pinotti (Italy), Jonathan Castroviejo (Spain), Luis Leon Sanchez (Spain), Fumiyuki Beppu (Japan), Alexander Kristoff (Norway), Timothy Duggan (USA) and Michael Schar (Switzerland). On their first lap of the Box Hill circuit they're 5min 21sec clear.

Are these a slightly random group (like the breakaways sometimes seems to be in TdF)? Or are they significant contenders for medals?
