Too true!

Anything in the top ten would be a great achievement!

it would be, but you can imagine that Wiggy has a Dave Brailsford tape running in his head, and Brailsford wouldn't be pleased - particularly since the gap was just a few bike lengths ahead, and he could have closed it.

He was nowhere near the front of the second group though, so may have been unaware....

Still, he should have been sniffing Astana ass....

That's what I thought at first, but the Garmin rider near the front of the second bunch was Julian Dean, not Wiggo.

Wiggo said that everyone was sitting up and ambling over the line as per, so he had no view of anything.

It's just a random silly bit of officiating that no one could have reasonably predicted.

I'm sure if there had been a Frenchman in yellow and he had lost the jersey cos of this there would have been something done about it....

I stand corrected.

TdF site claims that 15s gap has been declared void - GC remains unchanged. Lucky old Wiggins.
