Surprised at the number of people thinking Kwiat can win this. Surely Sagan will dominate the finish.

Did you see the ease with which Kwia bridged to Sagan on what was a brilliant attack from Sagan?

Kwia has looked very comfortable since and watching Sagan all the time. Looks very confident of being able to take him to me. Very good going uphill too of course, although Sagan is very good for explosive short climbs too.

It's going to be an epic battle that's for sure. Mouthwatering prospect.

It looked like Sagan stopped up a bit after his attack, so not really that smooth. That said Kwiatkowski has a very smooth and elegant style just in general. His position on the bike is elegant, compared to Sagan.

Incredibly talented guy this Kwiatkowski, just left Sagan in his dust. Super impressive win! :)

Good call. Boy he was impressive.

Don't know why Sagan attacked first - wheelsucking would've served him better. Still, the strongest rider certainly won.
