Lol Cavendish is such a selfish rider, absolutely doesnt care about anyone else.


Congrats to Greipel, Sagz sprint was great too after that flat :)

Great for Fabian, and Sagan is so damn strong. If in the next few days he wins bunch sprints, I'm not surprised at all. Extremely powerful. Contador almost didn't race since the Giro. He's getting into the rhythm.

Wow!
Movistar complete fail.

Even Anacona was pulling and he was brought for the mountains. What happened to those rouleurs that the brought for the first week???

You guys are clearly missing the genius of Cavendish, he's realised that if Martin gets yellow then the team will waste energy protecting it rather than helping him win more stages.... :p

Poor from Cav to sit up, but then he was not helped by Renshaws crazy decision to hit the front far too early. He gave Greipel a perfect lead out

Wasn't there something similar at HTC? Hincapie missed out on yellow by three seconds then Cavendish lost points to Hushovd in the green jersey.

cancellara could even hold yellow tomorrow because the riders behind him aren't the strongest climbers for the mur de huy

Well, now Martin won't pull as hard for Cav, so good luck beating Greipel now.

For those forum members that want these small climbers to loose weight so they can attack in the mountains that is happy thinking. On paper looks exciting but the reality it rarely works in the Tour.

They loose another two minutes on Tuesday. It wears them down completely.

Nibali still has a chance due to the way he rides.

Uran in great position. Still think Froome will loose sometime somewhere before the mountains but is in great position as well. And I still don't consider Contador a favorite because of Giro.

I love how this seems to be a revelation for some folks. I mean, he's been such altruistic chap in the past, hasn't he?

In contrast, Greipel never fails to accept personal responsibility, regardless who is to blame. Kind of hard to figure why so many root for the former instead of the latter.

And Sagan already ahead of all the real contenders for the green jersey. No matter what the point system is, they should hand over the green jersey to Sagan before the race even started.
