Andre Greipel wins sprint finish
Peter Sagan second, Mark Cavendish third
Chris Froome remains second in general classification
Tony Martin remains in yellow
Well, that is just about it from me today. Nothing happened for some time as the riders headed towards Amiens and then, boom, an explosive finish and more disappointment for Cav.
Could he possibly get on board with the slightly uphill finish on Thursday? Join me then to find out.
No change at the top of the general classification, so Tony Martin remains in yellow, with Chris Froome 12 seconds behind him.

And Peter Sagan got second with Mark Cavendish third.

Round the right-hand bend. Seconds left.
Big left-hand turn successfully negotiated. Tony Martin on the front with his Etixx - Quick-Step team-mates, including Mark Cavendish.
John Degenkolb is lurking.
Mark Cavendish tucked in behind Tony Martin, plus another three of his team-mates. The riders are in Amiens now.
Another roundabout successfully negotiated. Andre Greipel got squeezed out crossing one and has lost ground.

Kristoff, Cavendish, Sagan, Greipel - they're all up there as they negotiate a roundabout.
"It looks like Alexander Kristoff is on the wheel of Mark Cavendish," said Rob Hayles. "They are all starting to bunch up now."
"So many people want the same piece of road," reckons Simon Brotherton.
8km left.
Hmm, I stand corrected. We have another quick dash through the open roads before we approach Amiens. Less than 10km, BMC take to the front. The train moving.
We've left the countryside behind for the day, there are less than 11km left now. Some familiar teams - Sky, BMC, Tinkoff-Saxo, Movistar - at the front.
Tony Martin has a very focused look on his face.
"It is getting very physical out there," remarks Simon Brotherton.
The second group is more than six minutes behind. Forget all about them.
The pace is still on the up. How are your nerves?
Thibaut Pinot back in touch.
Quote MessageWell, we've had a few spills today, the rate of attrition has not diminished with a few more riders climbing aboard the broom wagon. But it looks like we might just get our first sizeable charge to the line at this year's Tour. Mark Cavendish was my pick earlier and I'm sticking with him. He has punctured and been caught behind a crash, but he is still in there, with Etixx teammates. I imagine his trials have only added to the fire in his belly.

Bantz.
Closing in on 15km left. Everything is starting to speed up...
BSE's Armindo Fonseca was towards the back and went down after breaking on the white lines. Didn't even touch anyone. Pinot working hard to get back in touch.
