Audrey Cordon Ragot (Trek-Segafredo) used the Taaienberg to get away from the elite peloton. However, rather than getting away on the climb, she went on the attack at the summit. Ususally, riders will slow and catch their breath as they crest a climb, so she caught them napping with her attack. She was able to build up an advantage of about 20 seconds with another 38 kilometers yet to race. I'm not sure whether she was going for the win, or helping her teammate, Elisa Boghini Longo, get a free ride in the chasing group. It was probably a combination of the two.
