So the Tour de France began today.
Unfortunately Bradley Wiggins isn't racing for Team Sky so Chris Froome has taken the position of Team Leader for Sky.
The stage was frankly chaos. A team bus crashed into the finish line (see picture below)

So they said the finish was going to be at 3k and just as the riders were about to arrive at 3k, they changed the finish line to the normal finish. There was also a big crash at 6k to the finish so lots of the best sprinters were out of the chase to win.
Marcel Kittel ended up winning the stage and as it's the first stage, he took the Yellow jersey.
The Tour can be followed every day on ITV4 with highlights at 7pm on ITV4.
Thoughts?
