The Race: When the Schleck brothers successfully attacked on the Côte de Roche au Faucons, they brought along Philippe Gilbert. The trio swept by the remnants of an earlier, likely looking break. As the center of a Schleck sandwich, it looked like Gilbert was going to to get hammered by successive attacks by the Schleck brothers. It didn't happen. In fact, at one point Gilbert dropped Andy Schleck, who then dragged himself back to the Frank and Gilbert. In the sprint is wasn't even a contest, with Gilbert easily winning and taking all three Ardennes races; Amstel Gold, Fléche Wallone and now Liège-Bastogne-Liège.
