Watched it last night, was nice to see the guys back in action.

Sky and Lotto fought it out at the end.

Griepel wins Stage 1 - four second margin.

Robbie Hunter, SA's sole entrant and riding for the Garmin-Barracuda Team, finished in the final bunch, 2 m 54 s after Griepel.

He went down it the crash near the end and trashed his bike.
