Recall Ian Stannard's masterly demolition of three big-name Etixx-Quickstep opponents doing their best to work him over in 2015:

Good to see Carl Sagan getting rogered in a tough end-of-long-break-in-(semi)-classic sprint.......

The 12 riders didn't want it but the three riders worked hard together until maybe 2k out. Luke Rowe was the inky ine if them i saw looking frustrated at it.

Can't work out how a chasing group of about 12 riders couldn't bridge a 26 second gap over 3 riders. Luke Rowe looked frustrated.
I suppose when the 3 riders were Sagan, GVA and Vanmarcke that it might be a bit of a challenge. However, there does seem to be a "after you" mentality, which I suppose just adds to making sure you make the right decision at the right time. Rowe didn't.
