I'm a fan but I dont think there was any alternative if they have decided there was intent rather than it being a racing incident. Looked to me that Cav was on Demere's wheel and had every right to go for the gap, Sagan was looking for the same wheel and swung over. If he had kept his elbows in I don't think he would be looking at an early exit.

Racing incident, Cav going for a gap that wasn't there. Sagan barely moved off his line at all. The elbow and proximity to the barriers make it appear worse than it was. No way a Frenchman would have been kicked out for that they just fancy a new green jersey winner this year.
I see that Sagan wasn't even allowed to appeal
Looks like its going to be a full bore finish today
Bollax, Kittel again. Not too impresed by the format of this tour so far. Too many 200k+ stages that end in bunch sprints. Much as I like the sprints I always think they are better once the sprinters have had to get over the Alps and/or the Pyrenees.
