Well, it turned out like I half expected. I hoped something unusual would occur, but that break got caught, as is fairly typical on the Champs-Elysees, and it ended up as a bit of a messy sprint.
Still, good to see Contador winning the White and Yellow jersey, it must be one helluva feeling winning it so young!
I've been quite impressed with he Barloworld team in this tour, definitely a good wild card choice.
