Lapeira would have needed to win the stage, so Gate's win was never really in danger unless Gruel somehow got 2nd place. Gate took 3 extra seconds in the first intermediate sprint today, so the difference to Lapeira was 7 seconds.Coquard with a last push in the last meters passes Lapeira and secures the gc win for Astana. Unbelievable
Since the update to the new player T*z has been completely useless for me. Such a shame, as it worked brilliantly the whole spring season.
