IndianCyclist said:Utter stupidity to think Uran and Henao will win a sprint from a significant field. So far they haven't and will not in the future. Looks to be more of an excuse. Haven't seen Wiggins looking so pathetic at the finish since the last two years. He is the sole leader. They should be protecting him at all times and at all cost. With this so called greediness, they have lost all the hard work that they put in so far.
I think the idea was not to get Uran and Henao to win, but to get them to finish in front of Nibali, Hesjedel and Evans in the sprint, trying to avoid a repeat of Stage 3 where Evans and Hesjedel picked up bonus seconds.
