Dafuq?! How was this even possible? Is Grechyn the superman, or has he found out Sky's training methods?! |

They are beating average riders, while Sky are beating superstars, so their material is much better and not so obvious (of course the riders are much better also without dope but still).
But this team is really funny, last year Gabrovski, now these two riders.

Probably not in the best shape now, though.
He'll be peaking to be WC cyclo-cross next year  |

We'll see 
The race is basically decided by the 30k TT though and I see some riders definitely better in that.
The rather difficult other stages will be ridden pretty hard though, and we've already seen what he is able to do then.
Still, an uphill finish like in Istrian Spring Trophy would increase his GC chances, but isn't that neglectible at such a young age anyway?
Few things kill talent more effectively than high expectations for every race.

It depends how the rider can sustain pressure. Sagan seems to enjoy the pressure, some are shivering and collapsing under it.

German media knows how to do it right with everyone, believe me

1-2 by FDJ in Dunkerque. Demare completes his hattrick. Suope produced absolutely brilliant surge at the end, veryyyy easy win.
Sinkledam 3rd, Van Hummel 4th, and Van Stayen 5th, none even were close though.

Arnaud Démare and FDJ once again the best in the bunch sprint finish, that's a trio of stage victories for them in the Four Days of Dunkirk now. Not a very good showing from the Vacansoleil sprint train today nor Van Hummel in contrast. |

Sinkeldam is awesome.
He's the new Tom Boonen!
Spoiler Well, no, but he got some talent, and is still quite young

Yep. Hope he can develop to being leader in such races! That would be really nice for the Dutch cycling and Argos

Solid first stage. The favourites Rebellin, Rutkiewicz, Barta and Huzarski took 50 seconds on him with two others. Still a good 9th place with shattered groups behind.
