[Music] 3.3 km to go, 30 seconds. These guys are almost certainly staying away unless the politics gets absolutely intractable. At this point, if they’ve sort of an argument if anyone launches a good one, they’ll stay away. So, it really starts to come down to how little track are going to play this. I’m surprised actually they haven’t started playing it yet, but they haven’t. These are the five riders who are going to punch out for the final stage of the Tour of Denmark this year. Yeah, I think I think they’re not they’re not going to play games here. They’re just going to keep riding. Even if little Trek had to sacrifice one rider, then they do that just to make sure this breakaway stays away. So, 2.6 km to go. These five riders, three little track riders, including the overall leader of the race, Mass. Patterson on the left in the blue jersey, have 28 seconds on the chasing palaton behind. Alex Cigar is the G2. You’re seeing group two from Lotto. He is caught in no man’s land in between, but almost certainly these five riders are going to fight out the stage win today. Meanwhile, back in the bunch, Lotto are riding on the front for the benefit of uh just trying to disrupt things for Alex Seagar. But I think I think all of that hope I think that’s a lost cause now. It’s just what these guys are going to do and how they’re going to manage it. Cryus and Miles Pettison are having a little bit of a chat. They glance at each other to talk to each other of course in a language that uh Pekky and Alexander aren’t probably going to understand. That’s a tiny bit of an advantage to them. Um and Mass Person still thinking possibly about a third win in the race this week or possibly they’re looking at Sa Cra Anderson in the Danish National Champions jersey to close out their national tour this year. Either would be a great story. Alex Angler in the yellow of Visman Lisbite is the kind of man who would just love to spoil it [Applause] and onto the bottom of the climb for the last time. Crow Anderson on the front, Matt Pedson as wheel. Alex Angler behind him, Matias Capeki behind him, and Jacob Sodakquist in the white jersey of the under 23 classification leading sitting on the back just waiting. It’s between these guys now. Anderson still leading putting fairly big effort in there. I was just uh looking back at yesterday’s communicate and also in the communicate from yesterday, Alex Sangler is down as rider 201 while the rest of his team is uh is on the normal 11 to 16 numbers. So very strange, not sure the reason. Don’t understand that, but maybe one day we’ll find out. K Anderson still in the front. 1.1 km to go. This final climb c gets up to about 6%. It is about a kilometer long. They’re on it now. There’s a 200 meter flap just it turns right 200 about 200 meters before the finish. So that corner probably is the is the critical point. Is anyone going kind of over the top round the corner onto the flap or is somebody going to try and launch something before they get to the end of the climb? It’s just looking very patient, doesn’t it, Matt? It’s a waiting game. Yeah, it is. And it looks like they’ve they’ve put S and Cra Anderson to work here at the front just to make sure that no one is going to come back from behind. Mads Pison sitting in second wheel at the moment. Alex Angler. Pison goes. Pison Pison goes. Alex Angler goes with him. Pison’s gone early. Has Alex Anga got what it takes to get back on that wheel? Anza Kennedy’s got to wheel it. Alex Anga is going to get back on the wheel of Mads Pedison here. The other three riders get dropped. It’s presumably between these two riders now. They’ve got just a few hundred meters to go. They’re coming up toward that right hand turn in just a moment. Maz Pedison looks back at Alex Angler. He didn’t want someone to come with him. He won’t be wanting to see Alex Angler there. That’ll been the last rider on Earth that he wanted to see on his wheel at exactly this point. And a soda sodquist is coming back with Saskki. It’s just the inertia goes out of those first two. If you’re now you have to jump if you’re now and just give it everything on this moment just as you come onto the back. This potentially could have been one of the biggest wins of his career if he can seal this. So everyone starts to look at each other now as we approach that last right hand bend. We’ve dropped Sar Cro Anderson’s the only rider in our missing. Alex Anger is looking to both sides. Doesn’t want to get boxed in by Sodus which is exactly what Sodocus is going to try to do here. Oh, they leaded each other a bang of shoulders. Little bit cheeky. And Mass Pison on the front as we come round and into the finish. And Cro Anderson has come back. Cro Anderson has come back. Nobody knew he was there. He’s come back on the climb and gone straight over the top to lead out Mass Pison. Alex Angler on Matt Pedson’s wheel. Pison and Zangler. Pedison and Zangler. And Mads Pettison is leading at the minute. Can Alex Angler get past him onto the line. They’ve got just a few meters to go. Mads Pettison is pushing it out. He’s going to win. Surely he’s going to win the final stage of the Yes, he does. He takes his third third stage of the week. Takes out the overall of his home tour. An absolutely dominant performance in Denmark this week by Mass Pedison and his little track team who could not have had a better week and even top it off with a fabulous sprint from Mass Pison who’ worked all day or worked worked all day. He’d worked very hard in that group. Group comes in behind. Mass Pison had worked very hard in that escape at the front all day to make it stick and then took out the sprint as well. Just showing a phenomenal level of strength and the congratulations between teammate Soldist and Mass Pison in the in the jerseys of the GC leader on the 123 leader map. That was quite a sprint. Yeah, it certainly was. And we saw that at the top of the climb became tactical and it was really interesting to see Sodus coming trying to put himself on the wheel of Pison just to make that block there over Alex Angler. There was a little bit of shoulder charging on each other. Zangler apologized directly for it. A little bit of playing the game there. And it was great to see Sir Crownison come back start the lead out which just gave Mads Pedison that extra second or two in the wheel. He had to go early though because he knew Alex Angler was there and he had to get the jump. He did that and he held him off to cross the line. Both arms aloft to take home the victory in the tour of Denmark. That really was phenomenal. A phenomenal piece of work from Saurin Cry Anderson who just who got himself back on and straight over the top there’s a disappointed man in some respects he’d have wanted to be at the finish today. That is Sar Vernel in the in the sprints jersey which isn’t his jersey. It’s actually Matt Pettison’s jersey. Um so Matt Pettison would have taken that classification as well and the congratulations of pretty much the whole team who have just had a stunning week. stunning week for them. It’s also uh look like uh Matias Scalmos are also up there in the front of the bunch sprint. So potentially there’s four little track riders in the top six there which is uh just shows how dominant they’ve been this week. Yeah, I was going to say if they were fighting relegation they’d be very pleased with that. But it’s one thing is one of the things that’s not on Little Trek’s agenda is is relegation. and they’ve been a great week this week. Um as has Nicholas um Anderson who we’re looking at at the minute. Um just wondering if we’ve got as far as a you know Nicholas Larson who I mean um wondering if we got as far as a GC result yet. I think he’s probably finishing second in GC. He was in that lead group and didn’t manage to hang on to him. Um and Yak Fugang and Yak Fugang just coming into the bottom of the climb. He’s got about a kilometer of his pro career left to go. Um, and getting the appreciation of the crowd. That’s that’s lovely to see. Sorry Matt, I interrupted you. No, I was just going to mention I think Sodaface might have taken that second spot on the general classification. Um, it depends. I was trying to look at where the Pelaton came in behind and I think they were around 22

Pedersen looks so good on the bike. Lot of Trek riders do. They have some god like bikefitter in the team.
Who's Alex Zingle? Wish the commentators could read.
That was an extremely tense and exciting ending! Tough against 3 Treks.
