With the speeds hitting 55 km\/h, Jumbo-Visma took an early lead. They had a long wait in the hot seat as no one was able to beat them. Team Sunweb with Tom Dumoulin was the only one able to come close and took 7 seconds longer to complete the course. Bahrain-Merida finished third with a loss of 9 seconds.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BuRo02_Dp0G\/<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA lot of the guys will also be at the Giro, so from my side I think it\u2019s important to look at yourself and try to be on the best level with preparation and with yourself,\u201d Rogli\u010d said after the stage. \u201cIt\u2019s the only thing I can influence. So I don\u2019t really bother too much with the rest of the guys.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Is the opening TTT a sign of things to come? Will Rogli\u010d make his mark on the Italian Grand Tour as well?
