Ruptured ligaments and an AC dislocation, apparently. Also claims the blame for the whole thing: http://www.omegapharma-quickstep.com/en/news/show/mark-cavendish-update/1826

The crowd were making a serious funnel, the peloton dropped from about 8 wide to 3 or 4.

The sky team are weak as piss. I can only see Thomas up with Froome.

They're going to end up dropping 2/3 the team to the rear to pull Porte back into it.

They're just cashing in while it's in England. Once they're back in France they'll be relegated to ITV4 and it might change.

Probably not, but it might.

I've watched both of the last two days on ITV4 and the ad breaks were long and numerous.

I think they were just showing the same thing on both channels.

Does everyone's time start at the same moment or when they cross the start line? Meaning that someone could have a better time but not cross the finish first? It seems that all times start at the same moment since the moment at the finish line is so critical.

The sprint at the end isn't about time - everyone in the same group gets the same time - it's about position.

Shame about the cuts, they could have been entertaining, but there's not much to be gained having them ride a mountain bike track on road bikes.

Unless they included a bike swap station. That would be funny.
