for not giving him a name check there. I couldn’t quite see his number. I don’t know whether you could Hutch. I think it was Adas Adazak of the uh rights team. Thank you. It’s a shame he’s there. He’s their teenager as well, the 18year-old. He’s all right. Oh, they’re still holding the same gap. This is an absolutely brilliant ride these three are doing in there as well. Really good. And look at that. There’s Paul Manet and he’s got once again Lucas Kubish on his wheel. exactly the same as we’ve seen for the first three stages. Um there is a high chance if it comes back together, it will come down to those two. Don’t forget that both Michael Hutchinson and I have chosen Lucas Kubish as our pick for the day. We’ve actually got an attack boiling up down the left hand side though. It’s a nice opportunity on a road like this. Or is it an attack? Maybe it’s just moving up. No, I think it might have been one of the Masowki Serski Pski riders trying to see if he could sneak down the left hand side and not get noticed over there. But he’s come back in now. I think they’re setting up. Is that your turn? I think that’s your turn there. Yes, it is. Watch out, bunch. Easy. Oh my goodness me. You were right, Hutch. Riders on the inside down to a full lock up there. Everybody’s right. At least that is the sharpest corner I’ve seen in a few seasons. Yeah. And it wasn’t a hopper hopperable sort of island on the inside. I didn’t see anyone jump onto that either. They have still not caught these three riders. Oscar Nilson Julian is doing an absolutely brilliant ride out front. He could there must be a thought in the back of his mind like I’m in third place now already just sit in get to the finish and survive but no he wants much more than that and I love it. Yeah there are kind of run or two riders like um Menan is only four or five seconds behind him so he has the potential to get past him on the on the bonuses of the line. There’s only 10 six and four. It’s only the first three riders. Um but he he’s third at the minute but if he’s back in the bunch you would absolutely guarantee he’ll stay third. it’s worth his while putting the effort into staying out here and see if he can get those time bonuses for himself. Yeah, it’s Andrea Rakani now doing a turn on the front as well. They need to get on with this because otherwise someone like Rick Otto is going to do a Rory Towns end here and it’s still possible. You just never know from this kind of situation. Uh it is now Suda Quickstepper who have got it back just about under control. Rakani on the front pretty certainly it’ll probably be Martin Severe and then Eve Lamper then Dre Van Gesttor behind. They have used this perfectly honed lead out this week that’s worked every single time for Paul Manet. Oscar Nielson Julian goes again. He doesn’t just want third on GC today. He really wants to go for this stage. That’s a brilliant ride by all three of them, but Neilson Julian to be out there today when he was already in the top 10 on GC. What a day out. And so get to get so close to the finish. I mean, it’s the kind of flat stage where you expect the group to time it well. Um, and they did, but you know, you still kind of your heart breaks slightly. We’re under under the flam rouge. 1 km to go. We’re nearly there. So close to the man’s lost his leadout train. Now he’s just getting up. Others are in for, but they’ve got two AT investments riders in the middle of the Suda Quickstep leadout train there as well. There was also another rider getting in front of Paul Manet. Now comes the lead out from AT. They appear to be leading out Dominic Newman again, their check rider. Let’s see how far up Newman can finish cuz they’re on the front foot today. But watch out. There is Paul Manet in the yellow. He’s got Lucas Kubish just behind him in that best slowback riders jersey. Milan Mento is in the green as well. Here we go. It is now Eve Lampart. Eve Lampart is ready to dispatch the Van Gest who’s been so good this week. Van Gast ready to go now. Eve Lampert peels off. He won’t get too much out of the way. Now goes Van Gestel. Paul Manet locked and loaded ready to go. He’s got the AT investments rider on his back wheel and Lucas Kubish has got a fight on his hands to get the wheel of Paul Manet. Here he goes now. Manet launches. Can Kubish today the fourth day in a row. Can he come off his wheel? Four in a row for Paul Manet. There is no doubt about it. He’s the best sprinter in the race. He’s got the best support team in the race. And he’s got another 10second bonus. We have to say it, Hutch. Four in a row. He is untouchable in Slovakia at the moment. He absolutely is. And that’s the same one two across the line, first and second across the line for the first four stages of the race. I’ve never seen that before. And but that was that’s kind of a carbon copy of yesterday, Jez. He hit the front with Cubis perfectly positioned on his wheel. They’re both opened up. Cubis just didn’t have anything to get by. Um, you know, Cubis is not going to win launching off the back of Pman’s wheel because he just doesn’t have the speed. The only way he’s going to do it is if he can find some way to get a lead out the guest in front of it.
