Haussler seems to be in great shape, he had a great prologue. He was good last year here and is riding now for a Swiss team so I expect him to podium. Sagan FTW and Demare/Kristoff to round out the podium.

The finish line comes after a left turn. I am hoping for Sagan to fall :D

hard to see sagan beaten in traditional sense, but a break could stay out if cannondale are roped into chasing all day and refuse.

Very weak sprinting field, but will be interesting to see where Sagan's at.

I cannot understand how this could be a VERY weak sprinting filed with Sagan, Demare, Degenkolb, Farrar, Goss, Kristoff, DeHaes, Renshaw, Cimolai etc.
If Sagan feels yesterdays climb in his legs, I think this would be between Degenkolb and Demare, but for my CQ game I hope for DeHaes or Cimolai:p

Apparently there's a 90º bend at 200m from the finish, so Sagan will be happy.

Because greipel, cavendish, kittel are missing. 1 missing, average field, 2 missing weak, 3 missing very weak. Didn't you know that? :rolleyes:

Though Rengg is 2.4km at 11% with 35 to go, so there aren't any guarantees of a pure sprinter making it, depending on how it's raced.

Part of the Cavendish Complex, it’s a long way till the Tour’s green jersey will be decided but anxiety has already begun for some.

Thanks. Add the little Kriens bump and we may have a nice race today.

Nothing of much interest until Friday at the TDS, that's too bad :-(

why do you say that? I know that there high possibility that Sagan will win the 3 upcoming stages, but still, apart from today's one, they have quite interesting profile. Today, Sagan might eassily be tired from yesterday, so other sprinters have a nice shot, there won't be better I guess. Also, it's quite possible for the break to take some of the stages.
