occasion of UCI Pro Series racing and the group the chase group neatly bookended by UA Emirates national champions with Poland’s Rafael on the front Jonathan Narv is at the back and somewhere in the middle Brana McNelte their US favorite Mark here she starting to feel the pain of this one as the gradient does start to rise here a little bit what sort of an effect will that have on the advantage of the Swiss star playing hot and cold a little bit forced himself a former UAE rider and now with the tuna pro cycling squad the great experiment of Switzerland and Fabian Canelara and others made some bigname signings on a big victory lately courtesy of Julian Alfalipe in in Canada last weekend at world tour level and it is a well- resourced team with big ambitions and this is an ambition and vicious exploit here from Mark Hershey. Just catching a glimpse of a group behind now. Um I think that’s the Ben Healey group, but Rafa Mica, well, he’s going to miss it now. He he wants to catch Hershey before the top of this small drag here. Not quite on, but over the top as they plunge down, the aerodynamic slipstream effect tends to be greater at higher speed. And that’s what they’ll be gaining on this next descent. And he’s pull this one quite close to come up and help. So, he wasn’t able to do it and he’s he’s he’s drifting back now. So, Squinch is having to to do something here because Mark Hers is, you know, a danger man here. But I think the uh the group behind I just caught a glimpse of them. I think it’s the um the um Ben Healey group. It’s not that far behind. Probably about 20 seconds. Is there any chance they can get on? But certainly won’t be aided by the fact that there’s a long hard sustained chase here now in pursuit of Mark Hershey. Yeah, Nvas is not coming through. Mike have been forced again to go to the front. I think that’s what he was asking for. But he was asking for Nirvas to come up. Whether Nvias is trying to recover as much as possible, he can he can do these finishes pretty well. Think of this group. I’ll say again, Carropaz is the best I think at this type of finish. Um and that’s why he’s doing absolutely nothing at the moment. And in some ways might be grateful in actual fact for the for this little head out for from Mark Hershey. It will keep the pace constant and solid. Won’t allow anyone to come back in from behind. And he’s just lurking, the former Juratania champion just lurking in that pink jersey, fifth in line here as Narvas now takes up the the bat for the UAE Emirate squad. Skuza for lead track down the line. Bar at the back after his long chase to get back into contention. Rafa Mica is just trying to recover as best he can. for as long as he can. Holding steady at this 7 seconds. Approaching the final couple of kilometers. Down to the final two and a bit kilometers of this third Queen and the Queen stage of the tour to Luxembourg. A group of seven out front for much of the day. Paired back by degrees on the multiple assaults of the Monted and Nicholas Burg. We’re going to have a look at the first part of that climb as part of our finale as now the group of favorites as assembled in pursuit of this late race attack from Mark Hershey, former winner of the event couple of years ago. And here she looking to repeat. Can it prove a happy hunting ground? The victor of that stage two years ago, Ben Healey finds himself in a chase group now, but he’s got his teammate Richard Carropaz in perfect and prime position. surprised it’s Marsh did that attack there. I thought maybe Brer tried a little bit earlier on because I I really do think that Hershey could feature well in this type of finish. Um he has done in the past. Okay, as you say he’s blown a little bit hot and cold um recently. last year at this time he was actually on fire but uh still going to be very difficult 8 seconds to hold off because it’s all uphill declin from from here on in and it gets um steeper as we get up towards the uh the finishing line at the castle inside the final kilometer of Tur Luxembourg
