It was a better day for the Americans in terms of place as Nathan Brown in 67th and Joe Dombrowski in 68th both had top 75 finishes for the US. Unfortunately while their place was higher their time back from the leaders was much higher as they were both 10:05 behind the winner. Joey Rosskopf made it three Americans in the top 100 with an 82nd finish. Brown is now the top American in 59th, 23:51 back, with Dombrowski 63rd and Ian Boswell falling to 73rd.

Sunday will feature a 25-mile time trial before a rest day on Monday.
