Rated ascents:

The Race: With just two ascents of the fourth-category Benkin on today's menu, the sprinters will want to make sure this opportunity doesn't get away.

The day's break, Daniel Teklehaimanot (MTN-Qhubeka) and Laurens de Vreese (Wanty-Groupe Gobert), were clear by the 20th kilometer. The pack gave them some room, but not too much. 100 kilometers into the stage the duo had four minutes.

Omega Pharma did a lot of the work of bringing de Vreese and Teklehaimanot back to the pack and with ten kilometers remaining, they had been reeled in.

As the sprinters got set to race into a headwind, it was Lampre rider Sacha Modolo who went first. But Mark Cavendish opened a big can of whoopass and left everyone behind to win the stage.

Tony Martin finished safely to keep his GC lead, making a fabulous day for Omega Pharma-Quick Step. They got to have the stage win and keep the overall lead.

Bradley Wiggins

Bradley Wiggins is not having a good Tour of Switzerland. He was informed he was not on the Sky Tour de France squad, he finished well after Peter Sagan won yesterday's stage (he has a chest infection) and today he crashed. One can hope things go better for him from here.
