After the first day in Terre de Langres, this is how it looks :

1. Cuoq
2. Ferrier at 1'14"5
3. Prive at 1'22"0
4. Bruyneel at 1'40"5
5. Chieusse at 2'15"4
6. Carbonaro at 2'17"8
7. Lhonnay at 2'18"7
8. Bouffier at 2'22"1
9. Munster at 2'23"5
10. Comoli at 2'54"0

Bruyneel was in the lead after first run trough the stages, but a loose turbohose made him loose a lot of time and he dropped back to fourth. Munster had a flat tyre and dropped a few places. Colsoul retired after first stage. Bouffier was an incredible third overall after three stages, but he had some king of problem on the last one and dropped back to eight, but he is in a class of his own in the Citroen trophy. Neuville took an easy start but climbed up steadily to be in 15th after first day.
