Stage one winner Fernando Gaviria was unfortunately caught up in a crash 2 km from the finish line. Still there were the likes of Arnaud D\u00e9mare (Groupama-FDJ), Alexander Kristoff (UAE Team Emirates) and Andr\u00e9 Greipel (Lotto-Soudal) to compete with Sagan. It was D\u00e9mare who launched first, but the Slovak followed and overtook him in the last 50 metres. Colbrelli seemed to be gaining on Sagan, but the finish line was just too close for him to beat the rainbow jersey. The GC contenders finished safely together in a group. However, all eyes will be on them tomorrow in the crucial team time trial.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/Bk_DUxznYdd\/?hl=cs&#038;taken-by=borahansgrohe<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Stage 2<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>1 Peter Sagan (Svk) Bora-Hansgrohe \u2013 4:06:37<br \/>\n2 Sonny Colbrelli (Ita) Bahrain-Merida<br \/>\n3 Arnaud Demare (Fra) Groupama-FDJ<br \/>\n4 Andre Greipel (Ger) Lotto Soudal<br \/>\n5 Alexander Kristoff (Nor) UAE-Team Emirates<br \/>\n6 Timothy Dupont (Bel) Wanty-Groupe Gobert<br \/>\n7 Alejandro Valverde (Esp) Movistar Team<br \/>\n8 Andrea Pasqualon (Ita) Wanty-Groupe Gobert<br \/>\n9 John Degenkolb (Ger) Trek-Segafredo<br \/>\n10 Philippe Gilbert (Bel) Quick-Step Floors + 8s<\/p>\n<h2><strong>GC after stage 2<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>1 Peter Sagan (Svk) Bora-Hansgrohe \u2013 8:29:53<br \/>\n2 Fernando Gaviria (Bel) Quick-Step Floors + 6s<br \/>\n3 Sonny Colbrelli (Ita) Bahrain-Merida + 10s<br \/>\n4 Marcel Kittel (Ger) Katusha-Alpecin + 12s<br \/>\n5 Sylvain Chavanel (Fra) Direct Energie + 13s<br \/>\n6 Philippe Gilbert (Bel) Quick-Step Floors + 14s<br \/>\n7 Geraint Thomas (Gbr) Team Sky + 15s<br \/>\n8 Oliver Naesen (Bel) AG2R La Mondiale + 16s<br \/>\n9 Alexander Kristoff (Nor) UAE Team Emirates<br \/>\n10 John Degenkolb (Ger) Trek-Segafredo<\/p>\n<h2><strong>It\u2019s happening!<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>https:\/\/twitter.com\/TMarczynski\/status\/1013427401215365123<\/p>\n<h2><strong>No Tour for old men<\/strong><\/h2>\n<div class=\"embed-controller-wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/TDF2018?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#TDF2018<\/a>: Gets told he isn\u2019t the oldest rider in the peloton at this year\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/LeTour?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@LeTour<\/a>.
