    Keep my team as it is? Save 2 transfers for Stage 4? Tricky one, especially with tomorrow’s uphill (sprint) finish.

    Viviani takes the second
    Viviani takes the second sprint followed by Chavanel and Perez Moreno.

    Viviani now in yellow by a second over Chavanel.

    Boonen and OPQS on the front. Looks like they’re driving the pace to try and break the sprinters and give Chavanel a shot up the short climb to the finish.

    Lip and hand injury for Bouhanni
    The race doctor told France Televisions: “Nacer has a deep wound in the lip and a hand trauma. He’s staying with us until the end of the stage and then going to hospital for further checks.”

    Nice to see it’s not something that’ll wreck his season. Hopefully he’ll be up and running again and at full pace for the Tour.
