Sagan's going to have to be a lot more clever than he has been if he wants to win this one.
I don't think so. On the intermediate sprint of last one he clearly let Coquard play 'big boy' and get more points and easily shut him down at the finish. The problem is he seems to have a brain fart near the end when a single rider takes off and attacks him and he demures because following him will allow others to suck his wheel.
