That's how to win a sprint. Different class.

Yes thinking yesterday he won it with a sprinters instinct. Today he won it with sprinters legs

Where did Sagan come for PTPers?

Also top ten on stage, GC?

I could tell it wasn't an exciting stage because there was hardly any posts... if there had been loads I probably would have watched the end before reading to be fair.

Sagan was 8th

Have we started ‘Sagz finished’ yet?

15 months without a win they were saying on commentary.

Shed load of second places though...

At the beginning of the year Ned Boulting predicted he would not win a race in 2020. It was amongst a few other leftfield predictions and not meant to be taken too seriously, but he mentions it quite often now.

Just thinking, if there is a chance to exploit crosswinds tomorrow would Nibali have the team for it or maybe Jumbo for Kruijswijk? Bora for Sagan would obviously also benefit Majka and Konrad.

Hadn't spotted it watching live, but Brian Smith's analysis pointed out that he also benefitted from a monster effort from Fuglsang who was bringing his sprinter to the front.
