2016 Tour de France

[Vetseun]

Judging by the replays you can definitely see he had no idea he had won

Jip agree. Just so typical Sagan. Always the entertainer. Love it

That was a very smart sprint from Sagan.. but that power sjoe

 

And Alaphilippe.. man that kid has an incredible future ahead of him.

Blood seeping through Contadors jersey. Please football players, take note how it's done.

 

Only time footballers have a bleeding shoulder is if they come up against Suarez in hungry-mode.  Otherwise, it's not really a thing, they have their own problems.

What A Stage! They made us wait til the last 9k's but bloody hell did they ramp up the drama in those 9k's.

 

Immense ride by Stuyven, really has a bright future and we will probably see more of him during this first week I hope!

 

Sagz in yellow what more can one ask for! Just worried over AC - hope he is actually ok and this is just mind games.

 

Alaphillipe - is nothing out of this kids grasp! Clever move and it almost paid off!

Sagan hit 40.8kmh only 30m away from finish line, to pass Alaphillipe who couldn't go higher than 39.7kmh #TDF2016 https://t.co/0hcXqeXVsL

Sagan celebrates on the podium after landing his first Tour de France stage win since 2013, and 'only' his fifth in total, which incidentally matches the haul of Sean Kelly. When a man is competing day in day out for the green jersey, stage wins have historically been hard to come by...

Vincenzo Nibali (Astana) and Thibaut Pinot (FDJ) conceded 11 seconds in the finale. Geraint Thomas (Sky) lost 24, while Ilnur Zakarin (Katusha) lost 41 seconds.

['Dale]

Fabio Aru (Astana), Warren Barguil (Giant-Alpecin), Tejay van Garderen, Romain Bardet (Ag2r-La Mondiale) and Mikel Landa (Sky) all finished with Froome and Quintana in the front group

'Berto conceded 48 seconds to the other GC contenders. Richie Porte, meanwhile, lost 1:45 after his puncture.

Holy F, how many watts do guys like Sagz push on a sprint like this?

Alaphillipe believed he smoked Sagz Baby

And then his Tour Of California 2015 nightmare came right pass him again

 

He nearly broke his wrist on his bars after slapping them in frustration

 

So close to wear the Golden Fleece for the young French racer

[Vetseun]

Ja and that isn't the same shoulder

.Phil is gerook

Phil was gerook.

Kept saying that there was a minute gap to chasers.

All of a sudden the chasers were on the leader.

Phil was checking the gap to the yellow jersey the whole time and stating that the chasers were a minute down on the leader. Cav was in the yellow jersey more than a minute down.

Smart move by Sagan to slow down just that little to let Alaphilippe come past so he could grab his wheel.

 

No doubt Alaphilippe will wear that yellow jersey one day.
