Martin finally got what he has deserved the last two days. Impressed with Sky, although can not stand the team. I think Saxo is setting up Contador nicely, as Sagan went and took a turn at leading the chase.

I think the mountain stages and TTT will be fun to watch.

Really happy for Tony. Well deserved and earned. All the big 4 didn't do anything to hurt their chances today. Thought Nibali looked strong and Froome as well. Tip of the hat to Quintana today...this certainly wasn't his terrain. Contador better be just building form, and I think he will(word has it that after the Giro he tried to recuperate and trained less that normal), or he's going to be in a world of hurt dealing with the other 3. Today just wasn't raced at a pace that could destroy the field. Hard nevertheless.

Edit to add that TJVG is in great shape so far and hope he can podium. His team should do really well in the TTT.

Sagan might be in the best form of his life. Twice now he has sacrificed his chances for Contador only to recover and finish second

Also don't forget about the job done by Matteo Trentin to give up his bike to Martin
