another flat stage, another reeled in break. But just as the last stage, Sagan was by himself in front
Sagan looking for a wheel
WHERE IS SAGAN?
Van Dijk wins
Sagan would finish sixth, but I can assure you that with the yelling I gave the team in the car, that they won't be leaving Sagan alone again. Anyways, Sagan was able to climb back into 5th

Dang it so close!!
Impey just overpowered sagan there, but if the race had been a little longer Sagan would have won, oh and shout out to Iglinsky with a 4th place!

stage Six
this stage would decide if Sagan would win the GC
we were working for Sagan expecting him to hang onto the front group
the climb has started, and Iglinsky and Gallopin are closing to the gap to anyone down the road
more attacks with 8500m, but Sagan is still hanging on
with two men down the road, the peleton ups a gear, now Sagan is struggling
Moser opening up the sprint with one km to go, BUT SAGAN IS STILL HERE!!!!!!!!!!![
Klenderman takes it but Sagan holds on!
that was a great stage for us, practicly ensuring the GC for us

but its too late
scary stage for us, but i the end we end up gaining time with a second place, oh and don't forget about Iglinsky who won the bunch sprint for third
