Sprint to 5th in very wet and dangerous first stage of the Tour de France

The rain made the first stage of Le Tour de France a very hard and dangerous one with a crazy finale. The last 5km were all the way headwind, the bunch was very nervous, a big mess. Sprints like this one with headwind are always a lottery and I think you also need good luck at times.

Dážď urobil prvú etapu Tour de France veľmi náročnú a nebezpečnú, s bláznivým finišom. Posledných 5 km bolo stále proti vetru, celý balík bol veľmi nervózny a neorganizovaný. Takýto špurt proti vetru je vždy lotéria a myslím si, že občas je potrebné mať aj trochu šťastia.
