[Vino attacks everyone]

Impressive!!

 

[Fetisoff]

What a ****ing pathetic win. Simply ****ing pathetic

 

[TourOfSardinia]

victory 14 for Sagan this season

 

[The Hitch]

Well serves Canc right for what he did last time the tour visited the Ardennes.

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Lame win for Sagan. Very lame.

 

[Marcus135]

Poor way to win by Sagan, but lets be honest everyone would have done that.

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Awful display from Sky but didn't cost them.

Which GC men have lost out?

 

[Frosty]

Cancellara seems to just be working on keeping the yellow for as long as possible. Seems EBH isn't good enough to beat Sagan atm though.

EBH did have to work by himself to catch up while Sagan just followed Fab

 

[Froome19]

Unbelievable by Canc should have watched MSR though..

 

[superconfex]

What a race ..SAGAN what a beast the boy wonder is

 

[Trofinios]

Wow, Sagan! So strong, amazing.

 

[the asian]

Sagan the man! Great ride by Canc too.doesn't look good for Gilbert

 

[stazzy]

props to canc and hagen

 

[Maxiton]

Cancellara was the winner of that stage, no doubt. Amazing.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Big question - who gets the dreaded yellow helmets tomorrow?

 

[dgodave]

Lame win for Sagan. Very lame.

What should he have done different?
.

 

[Panda Claws]

I still like Sagan, but he is doing this **** a little bit too much.

Remember Cunego Tour de Suisse 2011

 

[Frosty]

Awful display from Sky but didn't cost them.

Which GC men have lost out?

Who was that Sky guy putting in a big effoprt to come in 1.20 down? Has someone like Froome got caught out?

 

[Ramira]

EBH did have to work by himself to catch up while Sagan just followed Fab

I noticed that, that's why EBH didn't have anything left. A shame really would have like to see EBH and Sagan go all out against each other, but this way EBH had no chance.

 

[Mellow Velo]

Chapeau Canc, but it's another Saga holiday celebration.
Not exactly a surprise.

Phil Gil best of the rest.
At least Piti made it.

 

[Mshengu]

Canc magnificent, Sagan should have put a better effort, not a well deserved win for him!

 

[cocteau_ireland]

Too busy shouting at tv to post. Why does canc insist on bringing sprinters to the line??

 

[screaming fist]

What should he have done different?
.

Nothing really, he played it to his strength and won fair and square. His victory salute was a bit too pompous for that kind of win, though.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Did I see Froome in a time-loss group?
