What a great Greipel sprint by Ciolek
maybe some german disease? Mohs showed same performance many times during season too, lastly in Norway this week
and yes, great win for Guillen, he´s still in game in sprinter´s competition

And Vourgonov saves Jayco's race. Great win there. Froome once again totally dominant.

Damn. Why is such a huge group allowed to go. And why no Rothaus rider in there? Kunitski would have been a perfect rider for it as he already lost some time just like Rabon.
Hesjedal down to 5 although he showed another good performance but gaining just 10s to Impey might not be enough with the bonus seconds he might get. |

Nice! Salerno up to 7th overall, and Agostini almost in the Top 10 too!

Well, we came here expecting nothing, and this is exactly what we will get.

Nice one. Good race for me so far without my big men.
A pity that Blank is just racing 3 races this year. Maybe he is trying something similar in the other two as well. |

Free beer for all participating teams, if Cooke (or some other Oz'..) takes the final stage

We'd accompany the beer with some light snacks if you would allow Impey to come second!
Actually this race was a win goal so if you could all somehow contrive to gift one of the Red Bull riders a breakaway win with enough time for the overall then I may be able to make an outroageously high cash offer for riders next year....
Realistically I can say Vorganov indeed rescued the race 3rd place and KoM jersey is very good for him. Impey has been keen most of the time in the sprints - goodness only knows why he didn't bother in the last stage, ruining a decent green jersey shout.
Last stage looks like a good chance for another breakaway going on the efforts of the last stage.

Surely not. A box of Rothaus beer if Hesjedal stays on his 5th spot. And another one if we double our stage wins to 2. |

Again horrible sprint there, Croket. I don't mind if you try something to suprise the others, but not in such good positions and especially not all the time....
edit: Feeling sorry for all the guys having riders involved in that crash...

lost sprinter´s jersey again in last stage = big failure
6th Boucher and avoiding of crashes = big success

Not a good stage at all for me. Impey moves to 4th I suppose is pretty good but very unfortunate to lose Kirchen and Vorganov like that.
C'est la vie though, we have had a pretty good run in stage races really.
Bianchi and Meiji have benefitted from that, a brilliant stage from both of them. Can we bounce back with something at the end?
