The 5th stage of the Tour de France 2014 took place on July 9, 2014 and led from the Belgian Ypres over 152.5 km to Arenberg-Porte du Hainaut . In the course of the stage there was an intermediate sprint after 97 km. Despite the lack of mountain ratings , the stage counted as a short low mountain range; 194 riders started. The highest point of the stage was reached after 54 km at Mouscron and was at an altitude of 57 m. During the stage, seven cobblestone sections with a total length of 13 km were covered over the last 65.5 km . These so-called pavé sectors are used in reverse during the classic Paris – Roubaix . The longest sector was 3.7 km long and led from Wandignies-Hamage to Hornaing , the last sector from Hélesmes to Wallers was only conquered five kilometers before the finish line.

Shortening of stages

Originally the stage was planned to be 155.5 km long and should lead over nine cobblestone sections with a length of 15.4 km. But since the hell of the north lived up to its name, due to bad weather and road conditions the morning before the stage, sector 7 with a length of 1,000 meters at Mons-en-Pévèle and sector 5, with a length of 1,400 meters from Orchies leading to Beuvry-la-Forêt, deleted. This leaves 13 km on cobblestones, and the entire stage distance has been reduced by 3 km from the original 155.5 km.

Race course

About five kilometers after the start of the race, a top group of nine formed, consisting of Lieuwe Westra (AST), Tony Martin (OPQ), Samuel Dumoulin (ALM), Janier Acevedo (GRS), Tony Gallopin (LTB), Marcus Burghardt (BMC), Rein Taaramäe (COF), Simon Clarke (OGE) and Mathew Hayman (OGE). After 28 kilometers they had 1:30 minutes ahead of the main field. Defending champion Chris Froome (SKY) fell at kilometer 29 and then had to fight for a long time to reconnect with the peloton. There were also falls among the outliers: Martin and Acevedo fell, Acevedo was overtaken by the field. Martin was now the pursuer of the leading group; later together with Dumoulin, who had a flat tire and was left behind. About 50 kilometers after the start, Marcus Burghardt broke off his breakaway attempt and continued in the peloton. Meanwhile Dumoulin and Martin managed to catch up with the leading group again. The seven leaders were still about a minute and a half ahead.

Even before the cobblestones there were falls due to the wet, among others Alexander Kristoff (KAT), Sébastien Minard (ALM), Marcel Kittel (GIA) and André Greipel (LTB) had to briefly interrupt the race and thus fell behind Main field. The lead of the outliers increased to about 2:30 min. At 85 km, Chris Froome crashed again, injuring his arm and unable to continue the race. The Sky team was now without its captain and defending champion.

July 9, 2:46 pm at Gruson .

The main field had meanwhile disintegrated due to many falls before the cobblestones were driven on for the first time. In the front peloton, the jerseys rode in a group of about 40 men, behind them Alejandro Valverde (MOV) and Michał Kwiatkowski (OPQ) , among others, had fallen back and were now trying to approach again. Shortly before the intermediate sprint, which Westra won, the outliers had a lead of 1:40 minutes over the chasing group around Nibali, Contador and Sagan. The rear group slowly closed up again. On the next section of the pavement, Nibali, Sagan and Talansky were able to distance their competitors van Garderen and Contador a little, the latter was about 45 seconds behind the overall leader. Nibali was again about 40 seconds behind the outliers.

About 41 kilometers from the finish, Sep Vanmarcke and Lars Boom were able to pull away from the Belkin team and, in twos, took up the pursuit of the seven leaders. At the same time, the group around Nibali, Kwiatkowski, Fuglsang and Sagan continued to catch up. The leaders were caught up with 28 kilometers to go. Meanwhile, Contador and van Garderen were already over a minute behind. Twelve kilometers before the end, the three Astana drivers Westra, Nibali and Fuglsang attacked from the top group, Lars Boom followed them. Westra fell out of the group a little later, with three riders in the front, Boom setting the pace. He was able to break away from Nibali and Fuglsang and finally won the stage with a 19-second lead over the two pursuers.

Andrew Talansky finished with 2:22 minutes, Alejandro Valverde, Thibaut Pinot and Rui Costa with 2:28 minutes behind, Alberto Contador lost 2:54 minutes. Fränk Schleck was around eight minutes behind Boom, and Daniel Navarro and Joaquim Rodríguez also lost a lot of time again.
