Half of one team did not evan make it to the start of the race. One of their team cars broke down so they put their best riders in the remaining car with a few bikes and thats what they raced with.
Team cars with roof racks were not in use, quick pop open the trunk and dig out a spare wheel. There there was the team wrench replacing the tube in a tire and pumping it up with a floor pump to get the rider back on the road.
No mavic support to be seen.
Alot of the race was on paved roads there was some dirt. Most notable of the dirt was the finishing circut on one of the stages.
