Tour de France 2010: sprint

If something with Lentz, Klödi, Vino and Basso as the old guard in the overall standings again makes the trip, the protagonists in the battle for the green jersey as well (in part) old friends. In the point standings with Robbie McEwen (green jersey in 2002, 2004 and 2006) and Alessandro Petacchi (four stage wins in 2003), two riders in the race, which itself had already rumschlagen Erik Zabel.

But it was varied in the first days of the Tour 2010, after the first banged Petacchi, it was then Thor Hushovd and Mark Cavendish. Hushovds lead in the sprint would be clearer to a lot, it would not be the slow train to the 2nd Stage come.

And a little background, but always within easy reach to the top of his lap and pulled McEwen is currently ranked 3

First Thor HUSHOVD 95 CERVELO TEST TEAM 118 pts
Second Alessandro Petacchi LAMPRE 208 - 114 pts FARNESE
Third MC EWEN Robbie 75 KATUSHA TEAM 105 pts
4th ROJAS Jose Joaquin CAISSE D'EPARGNE 92 169 pts
5th 111 CAVENDISH Mark TEAM HTC - COLUMBIA 85 pts

It would indeed be his year ... (What was 2008?)
