Hushovd was in the second peleton and Farrar was injured during the Vuelta so likely to be out of form.
Farrar ended 10th. |

1-2-3 for HTC 2010 team
Cavendish deserved it - GB worked all day, and then despite being an uphill finisb that some thought would be too hard, he goes and wins it - with no final leadout

Ok, I only watched the last few Km's so I didn't know, was there a crash or something?

Greipel`s legs are so much bigger than Cav`s. 
Really like a gorilla. |

Yeah just over 100km to the end if I recall. That's why only about 100 riders finished in the peleton.

Impressive ride by GB today. Must say I'm impressed by Edvald, 8th in the WC is a very good result when you think about the fact that he had no help near the finish. |

Cance 
The race was quite boring but the final kms were really exciting.
Cavendish really deserves it, great work by GB today and great sprint by him, I didn't expected he can win on this course. I am happy for Matt Goss and for Jurgen Roelandts, nice 2nd and 5th place for them.

Not even close. Certainly not on the CQ rankings either.
I can't wait for the curse of the World Champion to strike next year...

Cav World Champion.
Sky top CQ ranking.

I think it was optimistic on the behalf of that hill, the 3 big races have been won by 3 pure sprinters
