The latter I think. Bennett was just beaten fair and square by PhilipsenNo idea if they were actually riding for Cav or if they had him just there so that nobody could get on Sam's wheel.

I think so as that's where Ackermann would usually like to position himself. In the process they forgot about an Alpecin team with a plan.
Abysmal performance by Bora in the final.
Rickaert's was the MVP here. First he buries Morkov head to head, then he still holds his line to block Bennett a bit (without really make any dangerous moves at all).
at least i will read an article about the race on the website titled "cavendish 3rd" without mentioning winner
Nobody got both winners right in the poll, but Põhja Konn, thomaswavrin and BlueRoads succesfully predicted Wiebes to win the women's race. glassmoon did go with the Vino option, but that only counts for the women's race, because he also voted for Bennett.
And you put the wrong Alpecin guy in the poll!
