Its the final stage, a fairly short time trial around London. And as far as this stage was concerned, there was only ever going to be one winner.
Bradley Wiggins turned in an impressively dominant time to give his all-british team their 3rd stage win of the race.
A distant 2nd was Dmitri Grabovski - 13 seconds behind! (Thats a huge difference on such a short stage - a further 13 seconds encompasses around 25 riders)
3rd was Michael Elijzen
There was also the battle for overall winner og the Tour of Britain. 7 riders are within 30 seconds of each other. Canadian's Dominique Rollin and Svein Tuft may fancy their chances, although Tuft will do well to make up 22 seconds on Rollin.
