[Valv.Piti]

Adam Yates has a great shot at 2nd in Fléche. Right about now, he is probably the favourite.

Huge crash.

The night before the stage the boysstayed at the same hotel as Astana and they spent most of the day with the team, starting the bus and hanging out with the rider.
Scarponi's wife thanked Astana for being like a family for them, they honored Scarponi's contract and gave the rest of his wage to her to support his family.

Sagan
bike sense

 

[hfer07]

damn - that's going to leave a mark

 

[Hugo Koblet]

How the hell did Sagan manager to not crash there? That doesn't seem possible.

 

[UselessToo]

Sagan has amazingly survived

Re:

Among the "crashes Sagan escaped" this amazingly wouldn't be in the top 3.

 

[hfer07]

Gaviria went down - damn it

 

[shalgo]

Sagan's bike handling is incredible.

I was really hoping for the Gaviria - Kittel showdown.

 

[shalgo]

Is Thomas back in the main peloton after his mechanical?

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Looks good for Kittel.

Sagan very far in the peloton

edit: and the way he moved himself up there is incredible, wow, now in the top 15

Well, I haven't made a list and I know he has dodged some bullets before, but I would be surprised if this one wouldn't be among the top 3.

Amazing Sagan, madman.

 

[armchairclimber]

Gav seems almost as accident prone as Cav

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Sagan amazes

Re:

That maneuver was crazy

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

And just like that, Sagan in the top 10. What movement

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Come on Sagan, finish this!

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

I think 1 Kittel, 2 Sagan

 

[Valv.Piti]

Ffs Gaviria, its sometimes hard to root for you.

 

[Salvarani]

No other rider than Sagan would have still managed to get second after all that.

 

[RedheadDane]

Kittel may have won the stage, but holy *** Sagan! :surprised:

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Stage

 

[Irondan]

Great sprint by Kittel, Sagan was coming up fast.
