Tour de Suisse
ianrussell
Typical, that'll teach me to try and predict Wiggins mood.

There's me thinking he'll give it one last hurrah to drop Sky in it and for next seasons contract and he's already back in can't be ar**d mode.

Imagine he knew the reality about the Tour a long time ago and perhaps he already has something concrete lined up for next year on the back of the California performance so he didn't have to show up here.

Another day for the sprinters so it's Cav's to lose.

Modolo wins mass sprint ahead of Sagan and Degenkolb.

Cav crashes in the sprint

What idiot designes a flat stage with two corners in the last 300 meters?
 
gotlandrules
That was a really messy leadout, lots of pushing and shoving, was only a matter of time before someone crashed.

Modolo-Sagan-Degenkolb-Kristoff-Rojas/Lobato-Van Poppel (?)

Nope Kristoff, Rojas 5th. Pfft

Ridiculous bloody last kilometre. Surely the race organisers expected carnage?

Big crash that was for Cav. Matt Goss also down.

Really expected Degenkolb to win that given his positioning after the second to last corner, didn't have the speed though.

No way you can justify that kind of finish layout Rolling Eyes

Why is he still contesting sprints in the first place? Even Farrar and Rojas are better.

I never understand why they put sharp corners or hairpins inside last kilometer.

Good job Cav seems okay

Sagan has no pure sprint speed at all. Modolo annihilated him.

No surprise. Modolo has been fantastic this season. I am suprised that Sagan beat Degenkolb ( didn't watch the stage so not sure how it panned out)

Sagan got a perfect leadout into the second to last corner (By the Giant leadout man lol) and got out of it at first position with Modolo on his wheel while Degenkolb was 5th, then Degenkolb worked his way up to 3rd but lost a few meters in the last corner when Modolo overtook Sagan.

Sagan only got 2nd because he managed to hang on in Modolo's slipstream and Degenkolb was 5 metres behind

Degenkolb had a gap to close after the penultimate corner, somehow didn't decide to stay in the slipstreams and chose a different line through the last, basically sprinting on his own the last 300 metres.
But yeah, he didn't have the speed I expected, maybe his crash yesterday still affected him or he just hadn't had the legs today.
