Race report
Riders fight hard to get into the break of the day. The pace is high (60kph) and despite a string of attacks nobody manages to get clear until the first climb, Alto de Illora. Ryder Hesjedal, Johann Tschopp, Hubert Dupont and Alessandro De Marchi crest the top with a gain of over one minute.
The gap grows to up to 7 minutes and gradually goes down when approaching the finish line. With 20 kilometres left there is around 4 minutes left.
At 15 kilometres Dupont is dropped and a moment later Hesjedal hits the deck. De Marchi attacks and soloes to victory, whilst Hesjedal comes in second.
Gilbert outsprints Martin in the pack and Froome takes 3 seconds by finishing near Gilbert and in front of a break in the peloton.
