João’s goatee has in fact gone.

Gutted for Ewan

What a finish!

Good finish. Unlucky Ewan after that climb.

What a finish, Ewan again just like his tdf last year.

damn that was exciting. Caleb was my original choice for the day and thought he had it until MVDP came looming round the side. Great ride by Girmay too especially after he was telling the press he was looking to just finish and not crash.

you should have gone with Bini

Bini in white is pretty cool. 22 years old.

Ha - yes. Ewan will be back though - all about the long game.

Ooof, slammed hard. Might accelerate this...

You would think MVDP would have his podium bottle opening tekkers sorted by now

Lol, all he needs to be taken out by a rogue flying cork

I was surprised how many pundits were tipping Valverde for today's stage this morning. Did anyone actually see him?

Dead Last in the league. [facepalm emoji]

Caleb Ewan crash is the stupidest thing I’ve ever seen in a bike race.

Er, alaphillipe in that Flanders?

Didn’t he do something similar at the giro last year, taking out Sags?

Lanes would have prevented this 😢

The tour

Commentary was top LOLZ.
Looked like Ewan maybe crashed , trying to avoid crashing.
What’s commissionaires @snoops verdict on getting pushed over the line?

Indeed. But what's with the frown?

Mathieu's got this.

Almost.

He still has the maglia rosa.

Infraction but I’d have to look up the penalty. Tbh I was happy with it as the sight of Caleb paddling his balance bike up the hill slobbering all over his glasses was too much.

It didn’t harm anyone else’s race and he’s not riding for time so I’d let it go.
