"When you push so hard, you already know that you will do a good race."
Those were the words of Astana's Rein Taarämae after stage three of the Critérium du Dauphiné. Taaramäe and his teammates have gone very fast since the start of the team time trial in Roanne, not far away from Lyon.
At the time check, Astana was just four seconds down on BMC Racing Team and arrived at the finish in Montagny with the same gap.
Astana finished the stage in second place behind the American teamm allowing Vincenzo Nibali to move into fourth in the general classification, 4s behind new leader Rohan Dennis of Australia. Andriy Grivko, Lieuwe Westra, Taaramäe and Michele Scarponi are all in the top seven on GC with the same gap.
