I think Froome looked below-par, but then he has no pedigree in long, one-day lumpy ones like this parcours. Perhaps he should have taken the Ardenne more seriously. Stannard was used as diesel first half of the race until we think he got a mechanical in the last cobbles. Then they stuck Cummings at the front for no flipping reason I could fathom, the Soanish were chasing. I thought Thomas looked boss, but he has form for crashing on descents and and you might have predicted one on that nasty-looking, technical SOB, I mean it even took out Best Ever Descender Nibali. I reckon he would have jumped with GVA and would have contested the sprint #jingoismwillneverdie

So many crashes, I was flinching.
Great finish, feeling bad for Majka, he was 2km short of a fairy tale finish. Well deserved medals, felt like the GB team were mostly burned out from the season so far, regardless of crashes.
