Elia Viviani and Edvald Boasson Hagen celebrate at the end of stage 8

The race: The original report from the organizer said André Greipel won the final stage. But upon review, Greipel was relegated to 39th, at the end of his group, and Viviani given the stage. Greipel had impeded Viviani and the officials decided it was serious enough to award the stage win to Viviani.

Race leader Edvald Boasson Hagen finished fourth, to preserve his GC lead and make him the final overall winner of the 2015 Tour of Britain. He had taken the lead in stage five. This is Boasson Hagen's second Tour of Britain victory, he also won the 2009 edition. Owain Doull snagged a few intermediate sprint bonus seconds to move up to third place.

Stage 7 map and profile | Stage 7 video

It was a photo-finish win for André Greipel.

The Race: With a less challenging profile, today's stage looked to have a sprint finish. And that's how Lotto-Soudal and Sky read things.

Four riders escaped the peloton and built a lead of about seven minutes, but they were always monitored by the sprinters' teams. And well before the end they were brought back to the pack, setting things up for the rush to the line.

André Greipel is enjoying a terrific year and today's results showed his form isn't faltering. He duked it out with Elia Viviani, taking his sixteenth win of the year in an ultra-close photo finish.

GC leader Edvald Boasson Hagen was fifth, easily maintaining his overall lead.

After the race, Greipel had this to say, "It was a close victory, but the photo finish was clear I think. We took control of the race from the beginning, no other team wanted to help us. When the gap was nine minutes, one rider of IAM also started to pull. Frederik Frison and Sean De Bie kept the peace high so nobody could attack. Pim, Sibi, Jens and I did the preparation and the sprint. I think we deserved the victory, Sky won already three stages.

"The first stages we wanted to help Jens to a victory, but we had some bad luck. Because the teams started with six riders and some lost already two or three, it’s difficult to control, also because everybody is tired after a hard week. Tomorrow we try again, but not without help from other teams. They predict rain, we’ll see if Jens or I will sprint."

Stage 6 map and profile | Stage 6 video

Matteo Trentin wins Tour of Britain stage 6. Race leader Edvald Boasson Hagen in the yellow jersey is hidden behind him.

The race: Eight riders escaped the peloton, but the pack's high speed eventually reduced the number of fugitives to one: Matteo Trentin.

Back in the peloton, Edvald Boasson Hagen was riding with both attention and aggression. At the stage's start, he was the race leader with a slender one-second lead over Wouter Poels. Boasson Hagen scooped up some intermediate sprint seconds, but he had bigger game in his sights.

Near the finish, Boasson Hagen bolted from the field and bridged up to lone remaining escapee Matteo Trentin. Boasson Hagen towed Trentin a short distance, and at the sprint, Trentin was able to come around Boasson Hagen to win the stage. Boasson Hagen's booty was the time bonus for second place and the four-second time gap back to Poels.

Boasson Hagen now leads Poels by thirteen seconds with two stages to go.

Mark Cavendish crashed, forcing him to abandon the race. An examination at the hospital revealed no fractures, but he will have to rest a few days before resuming training.

Wouter Poels wins Tour of Britain stage 5

The race: Today's stage had a hilltop finish and that caused a real change in the GC standings.

The day's break was caught with about ten kilometers to go, setting things up for a real fight between Edvald Boasson Hagen and Wouter Poels.

Near the finish Boasson Hagen had caught an off-the-front Wouter Poels and looked to be heading for a stage win. Then, not giving up, Poels gave it another shot to go clear, went ahead to take the stage.

Boasson Hagen can't feel too bad about how the stage turned out, since he is the new GC leader, ahead of Poels by a single second. Overnight GC leader Juan José Lobato was tossed and gored, finishing 89th, more than ten minutes back.

Fernando Gaviria wins Tour of Britain stage 4

The race: Wow! I guess we better keep our eyes on Fernando Gaviria. The list of riders who can out-sprint André Greipel is pretty short. Today it grew by one name, Gaviria.

A break of six riders was rounded up with about twenty kilometers to go. Though other riders tried to escape, the sprinters' teams were having none of it.

Lotto-Soudal set up their lead-out train for André Greipel and he was surely headed for another victory, except that the kid from Etixx-Quick Step, Fernando Gaviria, insisted on going by Greipel to take the stage. The nerve.

Race leader Juan José Lobato finished fifteenth to retain his GC leadership.

Elia Viviani wins Tour of Britain stage 3

The race: What a shame! Race leader Petr Vakoc crashed near the stage's end and finished 106th, ten minutes after winner Elia Viviani, costing him his overall lead. That's not how we like to see races decided, but falling is a fact of cycling life.

A quality break that had Tyler Farrar and Russell Downing went clear early in the stage and wasn't absorbed by the field until the stage was about over.

That set things up for a big sprint and Elia Viviani won his second stage of this young stage race. Juan José Lobato was second and become the new overall leader, ahead of second-place Edvald Boasson Hagen by ten seconds.

After the stage, Viviani gave more detail on how events had played out. He said: "It was a long stage. We helped chase the breakaway down because it was a strong move and we felt with six riders per team it was going to be hard for just one team to control.

"On paper it looked like a good stage for me, but we didn't know how hard that last climb was going to be, so we controlled the pace all the way up it to make sure I was still in contact.

"Ian Stannard did so much work before the rest of the guys chipped in to give me an ideal lead out. The finish suited me, and even after 216km, my legs felt good. I started my sprint with 150m to go and when I went, I knew no-one would beat me. I'm really happy with this win."

Petr Vakoc wins Tour of Britain stage 2

The race: Today's hilly profile meant it was unlikely that the riders high in the GC yesterday would prevail today. And they didn't.

Late in the race, eight riders with Petr Vakoc went clear. Vakoc was feeling his oats today, and with sixteen kilometers still to race, he left his group behind.

And that was it. Vakoc pounded to the finish, coming across the line alone with a good enough gap to also take over the GC leadership.

Sunday, September 6: Stage 1, Beaumaris - Wrexham, 177.7 kilometers/110.5 miles

Elia Viviani wins Tour of Britain stage 1

Stage 1 map and profile | Stage 1 video

The race: Though a small break got a gap of nearly ten minutes at one point, the sprinters' teams made sure they were rounded up in time for their fast men to contest the stage. And indeed, they were caught near the end, setting things up for a big romp to the line.

It was very close, with Sky's Elia Viviani narrowly beating Mark Cavendish for the stage win. Viviani also became the Tour of Britain's first GC leader.
