We'll take a bit of a step into boring territory for this game. However, this will finally be a chance for teams to completely focus on their sprint trains.

The first break to get away consists of Tankink, Gilbert, Amador and Roy.


But they get caught, and Rast, Haas and Boaro form the break of the day.


Rast wins the sprint.


Sagan beats the rest of the peloton to 4th. Foreshadowing?


The break is caught 6.1km out. A bit later than most sprinters would've liked, and there's not much organisation.


Argos are the quickest to get set, and the other sprinters are rushing to latch on to Marcel Kittel's wheel.


As expected Kittel has a great lead. Demare is doing well though.


It looks like it's between those two. Goss and Ferrari are in good positions as well. Sagan is blocked by the Italian.


And Marcel Kittel makes it two in a row. Demare and Goss follow to make the podium. The German is really doing a lot to keep Argos in the World Tour, while also putting large dents in the hopes of Euskaltel and Orica.

The final stage before we head up to Ax 3 Domains. Can Marcel Kittel grab a third stage win in a row? Will Andre Greipel fade even further? Let's find out.

Gasparotto and Roy are the first riders to make a break.


They are joined by TJ Slagter. Gasparotto takes the first climb.


He also wins the 2nd.


And the sprint.


Sagan takes 4th at the sprint. Foreshadowing perhaps?


Oh and Gasparotto takes the final climb.


With 39km Favilli, Brajkovic, Bouhanni and Rogers crash.


Roy has been dropped by the break. Gasparotto is having a blinder, he puts up a strong resistance to the pack.


But he is caught 6.2km out. Now time for the sprinters to get ready.


It's a clutter at the front to say the least. Kittel seems to have the advantage, but it's too close to call. There are 2km to go.


As expected it's a mess up the front. Goss has shown some great speed but keeps getting blocked, Boonen is finally up there for Omega, and Greipel is lost again.


Sagan was the one with the open road, and he took full advantage. A win on the line, and finally Cannondale are on top of the podium.

Bad news for Sky and Belkin as important team members Sergio Henao and Laurens Ten Dam abandon before we even go into the mountains.
