    I'm guessing Rowe dropped back for Stannard?
    Napoleon, don't be jealous that I've been chatting online with babes all day. Besides, we both know that I'm training to be a cage fighter.

    Sagan nearly rides into a ditch.

    Sagan's leg warmers are diabolical - that gap shouldn't be allowed.

  • Main bunch is now 60 riders or so, with only Moscon riding.

    Is Boonen in the chasing group? I noticed there was another Quickstep rider other than the two at front... not sure who though

    We know from past form all 3 up front will ride themselves into the ground rather than get caught. None of them like playing silly buggers from far out.

    Gap doesn't look that big, but I'll trust the timers.

    Can see the chase group behind the leaders on the long straights now. Heavyweight lead group though!

    Sagan's looking over his shoulder - it doesn't look 30s to me.
