Looks like Phonak has decided that 3:30-4 Minutes is fine..they are not pressing to reel in the break, but are not letting them get away either. IF McEwen wants to preserve his Green jersey, it looks like it will be up to Divitamin to reel the break in.

Robbie is not under any threat of losing his jersey today. Boonen is 29 points back, Freire is 30 points back, and Bennati is 46 points back.
With only 4 riders in the break Robbie still has a chance to take points from the bunch sprint at the finish, even if they are only 5th place points.
