1. Bos
2. Bouhanni
3. Cantwell

An uphill sprint, apparently he can do that as well now.

Bos! That probably makes up for Blanco's lack of results the past month.

Theo Bos takes it!!!

with a 400 m sprint!!

Was this broadcasted somewhere?

Anyway, the guy always sprints from way too far out.

Nah, no broadcasts anywhere that I could find. That was from the race ticker.

Shame that they don't show TT either later today.

Yeah, I see it now. Thought it was only on twitter.

Talk of the 2014 edition being held in Yorkshire.

Given the current weather in Yorkshire, that would mean no race next year?

Good to see Bos continuing going strong.

Bouhanni's dental issues haven't affected his sprint much luckily.

Boswell +08:02. Those Sky Americans aren't exactly on fire this year...

Understatement of the year?

Considering he had a crash...

And at Paris Nice he has been quite great doing all the pacing work. Many don't see it because it took place before the coverages begin....

Still better sprint field than Volta a Cataluyna

 

[Eyeballs Out]

Still better sprint field than Volta a Cataluyna

And better than any previous edition of this stage - always found it strange how no team sent a sprinter for a free win previously

I'm not against having a classic in Yorkshire. But Corsica has really made the gp Jens voigt it's own. Would be sad to see it go. They have great terrain there.

Maybe because before your sprinter had to get over the mountain stage first. Now the mountain stage is 2nd so it's easier to send a sprinter who can not bother with the gc stage if he doesn't wish.

Apparently there will be a Tour of Corsica in February next year. Perhaps they are diverting funds to that.

Perhaps they don't want to warm down after races

The profile for the TT is wrong on the official website.

[Samson]

I love to see that, the island has everything.

i feel andy will be at one point at the front on ospedale. to upset his critics he might even borrow a beer from a spectator.

Yeah well I do find it encouraging that he ends up in the first half of the peloton in a sprint, hopefully he´s getting his head straight finally, but good to see he´s improving.
