    Looked to be a fair old wind there if the flags are anything to go by. Tail wind though.

    Was hoping Nico Roche would have a chance on stage 4 or 5 ...both rolling stages that suit him ...hard stages

    Looks like all in for pink now so no chance for break or late attack for him now


    BMC could be defending the jersey for a week or more

    Sam did his best there to cut Viviani out of the sprint, dug deep but just not enough to take the win. was really hoping he would take that one.

    Did Sam go a tad early?

    that's what I thought, and it seemed the team really fractured on the run-in. one of them went to the front, looked over his shoulder and saw no-one followed and seemed to completely drop out of it, with Bennett then completely isolated.

    Seems from cyclingpodcast Sam himself has admitted to going to early

    200+km on a motorway through flat desert does not make for a visual spectacle; thanks god it's back to Italy for the next stage.
