    M Kittel wins it in a sprint to the line, just waiting conf of 2nd & 3rd place
    Pain hurts much less if its topped off with beating your mates to top of a climb.

    Just for info - Guardini 2nd and Richeze 3rd. Whilst the crash took out a lot of riders it was a low speed corner so I hope no-one was hurt.

    Was is that much different than JTL last year (I repeat I didn't actually see it)?

    Same as you, not seen it, but I also thought of JTL and wondered if there were a bunch of forumites in Turkey nursing a semi about their new hero

    Expect a big money move to Katusha or someone with said forumites talking of Ardennes wins only for him to fail to finish any of them :wink:

    Team Saxo-Tinkoff ‏@TeamSaxoTinkoff 8m A VERY surprising stage win by Mustafa Sayar #tur2013. #Teamsaxotinkoff's Rory Sutherland finished side by side with Berhane.

    hahahahahaha
    To put Rory Sutherland into that same tweet is just pure satire... :D

    I hope Sayars performance was clean, it was a great attack stomping on the big ring. Unfortunately the first thing that pops into peoples head is that it's because of dope. The sad state of our sport really :-(

    I watched the stage a short while ago, and it seemed to me the peloton weren't trying that hard to follow Sayar. The Saxo rider didn't seem that bothered.
