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.

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.

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.
