Thanks as ever!

Please forgive massive snip - Bakelants was brilliantly clear when
telling us why he went for the win on UK channel ITV4, where we're
getting live and highlights coverage.

Basically he went with the break because he thought that if Chavanel was
going for it he should join in. Then Chavanel indicated disgust that he
was doing all the work for the other four - and nodded Jan on, happy to
see Jan win rather than the freeloaders on his wheel. Nice work.
