renshaw sprinted from way to far, it seems like his lead out habits aren't going to die easy :p

He was supposed to be leading out Matthews, but Matthews lost his wheel.

I'm pretty sure he was aware of that, because he looked behind just before he went.
If Matthews was at this wheel.....

He was already committed when he looked around.

you think? Tour of Oman, 30 minutes highlights, the day after the stage and a full 4 or 5 hours after the next stage has finished

What part of the word "maybe" don't you understand? I was suggesting that the change may possibly be for the better. It does not imply that I believe that will necessarily be the case.

Just seeing the TDU snippet on Nine news I must say that Hooters was really close to Greipel in that finish.

He did do well but Hansen said the team missed JR.

Favourite for the gc? I'd still say that EBH is the big favourite right now with Matthews the second favourite. Those guys can pick up time in the flat sprint stages where as Gerrans won't.

Gerrans might pick up some time today, if the race is hard enough.

+100. I think everyone is looking forward to the sprints. Hendo looks to be in great form.

A pity that Haussler is now not in contention for GC ( not enough time bonuses )

Renshaw found himself in front after the last corner, turned around to find Matthews not there and thus took off for the line.

In the end he went too early, but thats racing.

Andre came from long way back, so good win.
