Critérium du Dauphiné 2015 Stage 3: BMC wins TTT, Dennis yellow jersey
In a tricky team time trial with a lot of false flat world champion BMC takes the win. So Van Garderen is the GC man in bonus, but Nibali and Valverde do serious business as well. Froome is half a minute down after Sky losing two riders early in the race on the demanding track. (Slideshow route/profile)
