Sky went to early... again, but Cavendish is so good it doesn't matter.

Sagan would've challenged Cavendish a lot more if it wasn't for Sieberg.

Cavendish seems to riding himself into form. If Goss have sucked this tour..then what a heck you talking about. Yep no stage win..but he has been always there.
Sagan protest spoiled he´s chanches for green. Stabile..great nr. 2-3 sprinter on this tour..is this that bad?

A bit harsh saying Goss sucked this tour
There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die

Wiggins finishes leadout and then drops back so he can do the
"sit in middle of the peloton and raise arms as TDF Champ" Pfft

Sagan bridged quite a big gap all by himself, really impressive, Cav once again a beast in Paris.

He was the only one that had a team dedicated especially for him. And yet he is the only one that missed a stage win. Cav got 3, Sagan 3, Greipel 3. Yeah, compared to those he sucked.

nothing in that world can get against that kind of Cav..he was way to early at the front. No one was getting even closer to him

I'm still annoyed at the camerawork. Why do they show the sprint from the side, year after year? It's a crappy way.

I did not see that dedicated team actualy worked or leading him out for any sprint as sprinters support tea should manage

I agree, I'd prefer it just as a replay.

Sagan gained a lot on Cavendish, had he started on his wheel, he could have made it difficult for Mark.

That was impressive. Cav is the best sprinter there is. Period.

I'm quite happy to see Haedo performing well. Before the tour, I didn't think he would even make a top 10.

Yeah. You can't see others coming up or even how close to the line they are.

Anyone watching SBS' coverage here? Porte just gave the most boring interview in the history of humanity.
