Amazing for a flat stage. Proper long range raid from big names. Costa throwing his hat in the ring with a suicide attack and a proper punchy climb at the end for a selection. Loved the finish.

What a tour this has been for Tinkoff. Three stages, KOM jersey and a rider challenging for the top 10. I think Contador going out could have been a blessing in disguise - looks like a weight off their shoulders and now they can get fully behind Sagan and Majka.

The extent to which Sagan is a better bike rider than a pancake flat specialist like Cavendish, it can almost not be stated.

Plus green and a few days in yellow.

Not a bad way to end your last Tour.

To be fair Cavendish made the final selection.

That bike throw by Sagan. Kristoff clearly didn't see that coming and forgot to throw his bike.

I'm Norwegian and I still love that Sagan managed to steal that. Proper sprinter's win from the best rider in the peloton.

Two Noggies on the stage podium anyway, so things are all good.

Exciting ride through Bern, another close finish, notable effort by Tony Martin and that's about it.
Expected much more from today's stage.
Congrats to Sagan.

All I have to say is that Gesink would've won that sprint. :cool:

Deceiving camerawork there, was ready to smash my chinese ceramics out of frustration.
