Bunch sprint. Columbia victory. Nothing to see here. Results:
- Andre Greipel, Columbia
- Tom Boonen, Quick Step, s.t.
- Daniele Bennati, Liquigas, s.t.
- Tyler Farrar, Garmin-Slipstream, s.t.
- William Bonnet, Bweeg, s.t.
Greipel takes the overall lead over his fellow sprinters, in the same order. Obviously none of this matters much, though the points race is taking shape:
- Greipel, 78 points
- Boonen, 58
- Farrar, 47
- Jurgen Roelandts, 33
- Borut Bozic, 33
- Bennati, 31
- Freire, 29
We may yet have a Vuelta where the points comp goes to a GC guy, but for now Greipel is doing rather well -- a huge chance for him -- and the usual suspects are kinda hanging around. If somehow Greipel wins the points, does he stay at Columbia? Does he take on a new role? I suppose I shouldn't get ahead of myself... but I bet these thoughts have already crossed his mind. Anyway, hopefully Universal will post the video of today's sprint to Youtube so I can finally see it.
