[Geraint Too Fast]

Hermans didn't finish with the peleton?

 

[wirral]

Hermans loses 2 seconds to drop to fifth?????

 

[Afrank]

1. Greipel
2. Renshaw
3. EBH
4. Goss
5. Farrar
6. Thomas
7. Lodewyck
8. Markus
9. Hutarovich
10. Van Hummel

Guardini failed me again! he better make up for it with lots of wins at Langkawi.

 

[Ferminal]

Wait and see, the early GC results have been wrong every day.

 

[HiCadence]

Bah! Really dissapointed with Guardini! He looked like he was well placed within the last 1k or so.

 

[Leendert82]

Hermans didn't finish with the peleton?

U sure? anybody knows what happened?

 

[Parker]

Greipel takes win number 100.

Is it really 100? CQ ranking seems to think it's 'only' 90.

Tour down Under tweeted it would be he's 100th win; I haven't counted up all his wins though, so they could be wrong.

Paul and Phil have been saying 100 all week. So there is probably some truth to that.

Anyways great racing done by Blanco. Awesome to see a young kiddo win a world tour race

Definately, great to see young riders breaking through.

There were lots of splits in the field there.

It seems like Radioshack have gone from having a 3rd and 6th place going into the last stage to finishing with a 5th and a 9th place.

What a fail if that's the case.

And Kelderman sprinting for bonus seconds could have spared himself the effort and just finished in the front of the peloton. Which he didn't.

Kelderman also seem to have lost a few seconds...

True, couldn't he have finished 4th if he'd been able to stay with the front group?

 

[auscyclefan94]

Good win by Greipel but the move by Renshaw was also rather crafty. He came early and looked like he had it at one stage.

 

[JRanton]

Kelderman also seem to have lost a few seconds...

There were four groups it seems.

Slagter and Thomas both finished on the same time as Greipel.

Then you have both of the Izagirre's, Moreno and Pietropolli at +4 seconds.

Kelderman and Veikkanen at +7 seconds.

And then the two Radioshack riders (Hermans and Machado) at +9 seconds.

 

[Leendert82]

Kelderman doesn't know that there was timeloss on the finish line

Yes het is binnen! Nog 2 boni seconden kunnen pakken en 2 plaatsjes opgeschoven 7de alg. Klassement. @BlancoCycling #TDU2013

translate:
Yes, its in the bag, got 2 bonification seconds and improved 2 places moving to 5th in General Clasification


Just informed him via twitter that he lost time..

 

[theyoungest]

It seems the time splits have been corrected. Now Kelderman is suddenly 6th. Machado did lose time.

 

[greenedge]

He did but he was basically sprinting to hold EBH's wheel, who was holding the other riders.

Hopefully Renshaw if he keeps up this form can get a GT stage win this year.
Goss started behind Klass- hopelessly out of position and still did a good sprint. He just needs better to be in a better position, for himself solo, or his team train.

Andy Schleck abandoned the stage midway through, rode back to his hotel for a massage, not bothering to go with the rest of his team to accept the prize for winning the Team Classification. Not a good team player if you ask me.

I wonder how much money he got to appear on the start line. What a d.bag.
