Oss and Stuyven won't ride with him. Reminds me of Chavannel and Cancellara in Rvv when Nuyens won.

Quickstep team decimated by loads of falls and such.

GVA ownage. Happy for him he is a friendly person. Great sprint.

Degenkolb is a coward.

I'll miss you Tom.

Aru out for the Giro. This is a blow.

Not necessarily, remember Backstedt. The Tour will probably be too soon, but with a bit of luck the Vuelta et al will still be possible.

It looked a pretty sprint friendly Tour, and I'm sure Cav has one eye on the record.

Look at this; apparently some guy pulled Stybar's arm during the penultimate round of Paris Roubaix. What an idiot.

Colbrelli has a chance today.

Big chance saw him in de Brabantse pijl. He was very good but wasted a lot of energy with being extremely nervous.

Bling also has a big chance. Van Avermaet always has a chance in a sprint after +260 K. And then you have the guys like Kwiatkowski, Valverde (not hard enough for him; fully expect him to win la Flèche Wallonne and LBL), Gasparotto, Coquard and maybe Ulissi. And behind them guys like Wellens, Gilbert ...
