Dont understand why Tinkoff worked so hard to keep it together for the sprint, Allaphillipe was always going to get something from it

5th on a tough mountaintop finish yesterday, nearly beating Cav in a sprint today. Incredible.

I could just a well say: Winning a mountain stage yesterday and on the wheel of Cav and Sagan in a sprint today. Incredible. ;)

Absolutely!

Edit: Although I didn't see how much competition there actually was for 3rd.

There was a sprinter for UHC. Other than that I did not see anyone really going for it. But we will have an exciting final after this sprint. Both would deserve it for their efforts yesterday. Alaphilippe for winning the queen stage but also Sagan for limiting his losses!

Given that Alaphilippe will take the victory due to hundreths of a second should he be tied on time with Sagan, the one second gained in the intermediate sprint will secure victory for Sagan if he finishes second on the stage with Alaphilippe third.

Hey smart! I hadn't thought of that :)
