Cav out of position going under the Flamme Rouge but somehow sneaked up there. Then he got squeezed into the railings just as he was winding his sprint up and had to freewheel. He looked strong though, I reckon he would have taken it if he wasn't boxed in, despite being so far back with 1km to go...

SKY look to be at the front with 3km to go and under, for a while at least. Protecting their GC riders, or at the very least, practicing looking after them. Looks like a core skill for GC teams these days.

Cav doesn't sound at all happy about his lead out today !
Where has all of yesterday's bonhommie gone ?

One thing Cav is, is totally (often painfully and undiplomatically) honest about himself and about everyone else. If he says his team had a plan and they messed up, they probably messed up. Nevertheless, depsite being delivered way behind where he should have been, he still managed to get himself up the field enough to retain the overall. I don't know what happened with Greipel...

OPQ never really got a hand on the lead out, it was chaotic but you have to do better than that.
On the other hand, the last kilometre, particularly as they turned the last bend, didn't really suit a bunch sprint IMO and the peloton ended up too strung out for such a finish.
What a vile day too, hats off to the lot of them for nearly six hours in that.
