Wow handed the green to Matthews ,.. who may have got it anyway.
Matthews will probably have got the 20 on offer tomorrow meaning he'd go 9 (?) clear... Yet with two more flat stages it would surely have swung back into Kittel's favour, guess the issue was whether he'd make the time gap today?
On a plus side it means that Kittel falls one short of Cavendish who won six Stages in one Tour.
Nor does it look like he'll equal the Green Jersey win set by Cavendish back in 2011.

Being entirely selfish, I'm glad he can't get Cav's record.

Oh on that basis I'm f**king delighted he cant get Cav's record lol! To be fair to Cav though he's also done it in the Giro d'Italia and Vuelta whereas Kittel doesnt seem to bother with them nor does the latter have a win in the Milan-San Remo
Loved seeing a sprinter Marshall being a minute in front of the chasers and five on the peleton halfway into the stage. How many times has that happened?
Lizzie Armistead has finished second in Stage One of La Course which has finished up the Col du Izoard a shorter version of what the Men are going to be tackling in a little while!!

Bloody typical, she will be complaining in a BBC interview that she gets paid half what the men get yet she only cycles half the distance

Could be very interesting if he makes it over the Mountains today within the limit
Steve Cummings was also involved who did a bit of a barrel roll into a field whilst still on his bike

In his condition I'd have been shocked had Cavendish got this far even without his crash

Few more Bardet / Froome attacks and he'll be toast... Looks like he is already actually
Simon Yates had a awful day today but stays ahead in the White Jersey by about 2-mins so should keep it into Paris
