Tour de France comments/predictions - Stage - 6

I missed my comments and predictions for yesterdays stage 5 and man am I glad I didn't make any predictions. Mark Cavendish opens his stage win account on stage 5 which I honestly thought would go to a punchy rider that could get away on the last few climbs before the finish.

Well that's the tour for you, unpredictable and exciting, always surprising and colourful.

Today's stage is flat and fast and surely another day for Cavendish to win. All his team needs to do is to keep him out of trouble and deliver him with 200m to go. If  Daryl Impey can deliver Matt Goss like he delivered Simon Gerrans on stage 3, then Orica-GreenEdge's have a shot at getting their 3rd win for the tour so far.

Predictions for today: Cavendish to win.
