He definitely got hindered, but I really don't think Kristoff intentionally blocked him. To me it looked more like a wrong path choice by Edvald, rather than a block by Kristoff. (Which is what Edvald also told the Norwegian press after the finish) |

Dont think Hagen would have passed anyone either. To close to the finish line, even the commentators said that.
Sport freak. Mostly interested in Football (Liverpool, Rosenborg with more), increasing interest in cycling.
Also big Formula 1 fan. Ferrari <3

He had to stop pedaling two or three times. If you look at his acceleration compared to Greipel, they both accelerate almost equally fast, and at the same time. However, Edvald finds no way forward, whilst Greipel has an open road and wins the stage. All I am saying, is that he looked very fast, and to me it seems like he is in great shape! |

So Albasini's out with a broken arm, which leaves Orica GreenEDGE with 6 riders left (well 5 and a half actually, looking at Matthews injuries) for the TTT. |

Yeah, luckily they dont have any GC-hopes. But they wouldnt have been able to win with 9 anyways stacking up against the 4 big teams, BMC and QS, 9 days into the race on a hard course. No way. |

Greipel is clearly ..best sprinter so far..he has won almost all intermediate and sprinter finishes.
He is in great shape..matured..perfect so far.
Super strong Sagan can't just nail it yet..and he can pass Greipel after finish line..well it is not first time when he wins green without stage win. He will definatly win it this year. I believe he will get he's win also this time. |

Just caught up, powerful stuff from Greipel again and good to see someone who no-one seems to have a bad word to say about having his time in the sun (well mostly the wind so far!). Might even make green interesting, with the point changes, if he can get another couple of stages.
Sagan was way way back and finished extremely fast though
Cavendish seemed to choose to drop off Renshaw rather than losing the wheel, perhaps conscious of hitting the front too early again and much as he did when winning the worlds but he still opened things up early into the headwind and Greipel put a whole bike length into him by the line.

That speed by 2agan, like a rocket, but again a bit too late. Gorilla with another perfectly timed and powerful sprint, congrats!.
Peter seems to be in perfect form, when he is maybe the fastest guy with Greipel, i wonder if the fight for the green can be dramatic this time. Greipel certainly can win few more flat stages.
