I wonder what odds you would've got on Scott Thwaites being the best British finisher this morning. Rowe gets a pass, but what happened to Stannard? It does not bode well for next Sunday.
Yeah Stannard was disappointing. Sky massed ahead of the Muur and did get two riders into the decisive break, but Stannard missed it.
That said the weather was far too nice for Stannard. Also he's not best suited to the Ronde, his climbing lets him down. Paris-Roubaix is a different beast.
