So I’ve just seen this on the BBC website. Don’t know if it has been mentioned on Eurosport commentary
It states that the UCI/ASO after consultation with the riders organisation, have extended the 3km line/rule to 4.5km for today only

And they hung up on me, after they went to check something...
That's another hour on hold again then...Correlation is not causation.0 -

Everyone apparently fell asleep before the intermediate sprint. After the break took the top three places:
4 Colbrelli 13pts
5 Matthews 11pts
6 Morkov 10pts
7 Philipsen 9pts
8 Cavendish 8pts
9 Bouhanni 7pts
10 Mohoric 6pts
11 Mezgec 5pts
12 Asgreen 4pts
13 Bjerg 3pts
14 Kuss 2pts
15 Pogacar 1pt
Cavendish clearly finished again. Still beat Bouhanni.
(Cavendish only marked it, really, and Bouhanni didn't even make it out of the bunch - it was a bit uphill, and just after a sharpish climb, so not really representative of anything)1 -
Basically yeah, but it's a pain in the backside because you can only travel with the digital proof. Paper proof is not enough.mrfpb said:

I'd quite like to scrap them. Offering lots of points was an experiment and I'm not sure it has worked particularly well.Lanterne_Rogue said:Everyone apparently fell asleep before the intermediate sprint. After the break took the top three places:

It's worked better than having three of them for piddly little points. Tells you who fancies it on a stage like today's (and can you imagine today's stage without anything to break it up?). Plus they've provoked people into launching the odd break or getting into breaks this tour, so animated it a little.0

We can travel with paper proof as long as it has our unique bar code.above_the_cows said:

Malta will only accept paper proof but not digital proof on phones.

I agree the one big sprint has animated breaks and the such like way more than the old small sprints ... They could play around with the points on offer .Lanterne_Rogue said:It's worked better than having three of them for piddly little points.

I'd either have a breakaway jersey and the points count towards that, or just have a sponsored sprint and give away random things. Would bring in some money and chat.Lanterne_Rogue said:It's worked better than having three of them for piddly little points.
