Mark Padun (Bahrain - Victorious) and Tobias Ludvigsson (Groupama FDJ) are gthe best placed riders in the break. They are 9:22 down on Van Aert and so will soon become virtual race leader's if they can push out their 9:00 lead a little further.
After 100km in the hills, the average speed has been close to 40km/h. To be precise it was 39.900 km/h.

145km to go
The work of the peloton has pegged the break's lead to around 7:30.
Today's stage will soon pass through Monteroni d'Arbia, close to the best dirt roads covered in Strade Bianche. Sadly the race will not hit the dirt today but the riders will get a chance to enjoy the stunning Crete Senesi hills.
After a fast 50km and another climb south if Siena, the break have extended their lead to 7:20.
Paul Martens and Edoardo Affini are riding tempo for Jumbo-Visma but it will be interesting to see who and if other teams help with the chase.
We will also be covering the women's Healthy Ageing Tour.

There are six climbs in the first half of the stage, offering excellent terrain for a break to go clear.
It will be interesting to see if Wout Van Aert's Jumbo-Visam team ride all day to protect the race lead or play poker with their rival sprint teams.
The 219km stage cuts across central Italy from southern Tuscany near Siena to Gualdo Tadino in Umbria.
The stage includes a total of 3000m of climbing and so won't be an easy day for the sprinters. The finish also rises for the final 2.5km.
As the Cyclingnews blimp takes height, the riders are signing on and lining up for the roll out in the stunning village of Monticiano.
