Chavanel?
Whose database is this? 
UCI's. They've really messed up once again.
Acording to the commentators Chavanel had taken good ol' (Alen) Boksic's wheel (used to be a Croatian striker for Marseilles football team in the early 90's). I'm definitely turning the TV off now. |

Rojas is such a funny fella. I love how he always manages to be 2nd-5th whatever the opposition, no matter he's facing Cavendish, Greipel et al, or freaking Chavanel and Gilbert.

Scarponi lost 8'40, by the way
I heard something about a mechanical, but not sure about that.

Yeah, I think he had a mechanical on the climb and never made it back to the peloton  |

Chavanel went to his brother for sprint lessons! |

Chavanel winning a sprint. Surprising.
I'm sad about Kelderman though. It looks like he has retired due to his fall.
I think he could have got a good result at the Col d'Eze.
Hope he isn't out for a long time

Well, I think it's safe to say that Porte will win Paris-Nice'13.

Impressive sprinting from Chavanel. It's so clear he's peaking already. Wonder if he'll be in best form for RvV... |

Velits for the win!
But Porte and Talansky, Peraud also and Kwiatkowski should be better.

Yeah, he'll jump on a plane from Italy first thing after the finish in Tirreno!

J. Coppel has the best time so far (20'33").
Last year Wiggins won the stage in 20'12".

Coppel is the fastest at the moment. I hope Westra will win today.
