Future watch: stage 5

Jon Izagirre and Mikel Landa both did well to come in with the main peloton on today's hard fifth stage of the Tour de l'Avenir. Precocious sprinter, climber, rouleur, pretty much everything really, John Degenkolb bested the two Orbea riders' compatriot Herrada in a two-up sprint, while former under-23 TT champ Oliveira and Ben King and Jan Tratnik all rolled in just a single second back. A 35-man group finished at 39 seconds, a group Landa and Izagirre were a part of. Landa is now ninth overall going into the last couple of stages, 1:19 back on Yannick Eijssen.
