Blame the route, not the riders. There was simply no incentive to attack here once they reached the local laps. Sagan would have been an idiot to attack in the finale instead of counting on his sprint. What's Greg's excuse of not attacking or helping Boonen in the sprint btw?
He countered the attack of Terpstra and didn't have much left since the Belgians destroyed their own teammates with their pace.

This. Sagan didn't have to attack. GVA certainly had too.

Only 2 dutch riders tried something.
