Re:

I assume that the time loss of Froome is not an issue?

Times were taken when they passed the line for the first time so nope.

GC was taken on the first passage.

No, plus Quintana finished even further back.

Re:

Kristoff top 3 and I am happy (even if Cav wins by 3 bike lengths). And if he (Kristoff) doesnt, Cav also shall not... then I am happy too.

Kristoff was on a tremendously constant relax mode to have all the energy left for a powerful sprint: 156-157-157-159 in the last four stages. So far so good

Perfect. Super. Sensational. Happy.

Zubeldia or Devolder? It look nasty the way he didn't move

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Bungle in the Jungle, Gorilla comes out tops.

4 stage wins. Magnificent.

Re:

Cav is done at the top level. Time to go to the team of the has beens at MTN

I'm not sure of that, watch the overhead again, Cav doesn't even sprint yet still goes past quite a few of the sprinters. He simply gave up since he was in a *** position.

Re:

Cav just did not have it this tour.

Cavs training methods may have worked when he was 25 but not any longer...

 

[MatParker117]

Green Jersey should be interesting if next year has more sprint stages.

Re:

Coquard was by far the fastest, but had to come from way too far. Really ****

Lol. Without Greipel's slipstream he would have been slower.

Considering the lack of dramatic reactions on the feeds that's not unexpected

#TDF2015 We have word that @stijndevolder79 is okay. Everyone else is safely in and @BaukeMollema officially cements seventh overall.

It's the same with Sagan. All those people thinking he was actually stronger than Greipel at previous stages because he closed quicker after coming out of the windstill vacuum the huge and imposing figure of the Gorilla imposes.

Always happy to hear the rider is okay after initial reports he wasn't moving

 

[PremierAndrew]

Did the protester cause the crash, or was the crash unrelated?

 

[djpbaltimore]

Devolder was in this race? Duly noted.

 

[Knutsen]

So. It's over then?

Re:

Crash was several hundred metres after the protester

It was a different situation with sagan because there were stages where he was centimeters behind greipel although he worked hard for contador (like stage 2)

Think Cav's best days are behind him.

Re:

People were saying it would be interesting this year as well, but Sagan one by miles

 

[Happy dude]

Bad tour for me. Amongst other negative things only 1 stage win for cav , he was definitely outclassed this tour but it was not by some young hot shot next best thing. It was by an older gorilla. Greipel has had an incredible tour and its a credit to him. B

 

[Steven Roots]

Atrocious filming on the French TV, as usual for the Champs-Elysées, with the side view of the sprint.
Ooghe (the TV director) is happy to play with his tools, while we're missing on the race...

Happy to see that Devolder is ok, it looked bad for a moment.
He, like Oliveira, was close to complete the 21 stages unnoticed. But he did finish on a bang.

Re:

Was too far back and couldn't find a wheel.

In the end it's around 60 points with a route like 2012 and someone like Cav, Greipel or Kittel collecting a lot of stages I can't see Sagan winning.
