Was it just me or did Sagan look happier than Guarnieri when they came over the line?

Yep... Is another stage for the sprinters... the thing with this stage is the distance... 220+kms... some riders are not really adapted to this looong stages... So is possibly to see some riders struggling with the high speeds at the end of the stage... My picks will be:

Winner: Greipel, JJ Haedo (if he is not really injured), Benatti...
Darkhorses: Allan Davis (He did great yesterday), a breakaway...
DOn forget Kristoff! He caught a bit too much in the wind because he fell too far back. I think Kristoff was trying to move up and brown somehow caused an incident and then blamed it on someone else.

The official Rabo report said something about there being lots of shoving, and ironically Graeme didn't like that :rolleyes: He shoved back though.
I was watching kristoff the whole time he had his hands on the handle bars. Why wouldn't you just coplain to the comissares instead of headbutting back. Stupid maggot.m

What was up with the Rabo guy right after the finish? Apparently not happy at all with a BMC rider.

Go to the 6:00 mark. It's just after the finish.

*edit* Judging from the results it's Graeme Brown and Kristoff.

Thanks for the vid!

Isn't tonight the stage that it goes through Auschwitz?

As I said it wasnt too bad a crash in terms of people getting hurt.. Everyone stood up and rode away. The only person who stayed on the floor was heado and the doctor told him he was fine.

No. Auschwitz is in the south of Poland, outside Krakow where the race finished. Warsaw is in the centre. It will take a few more stages of going south for 200km before they can think about Auschwitz. Then i think they turn into the mountains before coming back to finish it with another sprint stage.
As far as memorials go yesterday was more important anyway because August 1st is the most important day of the year hear and the awards were given out by heroes of 44.

Hello and Welcome all cycling fans!
Today is the 2nd Stage (Rawa Mazowiecka - Dabrowa Gornicza (240km)
Yesterday winner is Jacopo Guarnieri from Liquigas.
The 22 year-old former European and Italian pursuit and Madison champion used his speed to power from the small group that was ahead of a massive pile-up with 1.5km to go, topping Euskaltel-Euskadi's Aitor Galdos and Allan Davis (Astana).
