STAGE 6 IMAGE OF THE DAY


Edvald Boasson Hagen wins Sky Pro Cycling's first Tour de France stage

Edvald Boasson Hagen has secured a landmark win for the Sky Pro Cycling team, taking the sixth stage of the 2011 Tour de France in an action-packed and rain-soaked finish in Lisieux.

It was the team's first win in the event and the continuation of a week of strong performances by Boasson Hagen and his lead-out man Geraint Thomas. Thomas steered the Norwegian through a tricky final couple of kilometres, before launching the perfect lead-out. Boasson Hagen came out of Thomas's slipstream early and produced a devastating and sustained sprint which proved too much for Matt Goss and yellow jersey man and fellow Norwegian Thor Hushovd.

Boasson Hagen, who first came to the attention of the racing public in the UK when he dominated the 2009 Tour of Britain - prompting the memorable "Wonderful, Wonderful Boasson Hagen" headline - signed for Sky later that year and made his Tour debut in 2010. Injuries and illness limited his effectiveness in 2010 and an attack of shingles put his participation in this year's Tour in jeopardy, but his talent has never been in doubt. Now, teaming up with the multi-talented Geraint Thomas as lead-out man, he looks increasingly at home in the tougher "strong-man" Tour sprints.

Although we're primarily watching the Brits in this race, we are also keeping an eye on the wider performances of the British Sky Pro Team - for all the latest on the team and their reaction to the win, visit our sister site teamsky.com

We also have a separate article on the reaction of team boss Dave Brailsford to the win, in which he hails it as "a huge moment for the team" and pays tribute to Geraint Thomas, saying "there is no better leadout man in the world".

Of the Brits in action on the stage, Mark Cavendish didn't get involved in the sprint, preferring to save his energies for stage 7's finish which looks much more suited to his talents. Brad Wiggins and David Millar finished in the lead group and they and Geraint Thomas remain firmly established in the top ten overall. Ben Swift contributed to the strong finish by Thomas and Boasson Hagen, leading Thomas into position for the all-out assault on the finish.

STAGE 6 ON TWITTER

Geraint Thomas was actually quite reserved in his post-stage tweeting, but his delight at the win was clear:

O yeh, that was a great day for the team!! Couldn't help a nicer guy win, Good on ya Eddie!!

Loving the fact that there's no time bonuses at the finishes!! Keep the jersey off Eddies back for one more day...

He also didn't forget to name check Ian Stannard, who took his first pro win on the same day.

Also massive Congrats to Yogie aka Stannard on his first pro win in Austria!! Only for Eddie to go and steal your thunder...

Bradley Wiggins' dry humour came out in his sole tweet of the evening.

So as it stands Eddy the Boss is picking up the bar bill in Paris

Meanwhile, Mark Cavendish's tweets ranged over a variety of subjects, from his team-mate's narrow defeat in the day's sprint:

Nice ride by @mattgoss1986 today to finish 2nd. Nearly had it. Also, congrats to Edvald Boasson Hagen for the win. #hardestnameevertowrite

To the next stage, which has special significance for him, and his love affair with the Tour as a whole:

Looking forward to tomorrow. The same finish in Chateauroux that I won my 1st ever #TdF stage on in 2008. #nostalgia

Just pondered during massage on why #TourDeFrance makes me more emotional than a menopausal woman. It just means SO much to me. I love it.

Before finishing with another dig at his bosses and their technophobia:

Trying to explain #Twitter to the team directors. Brian Holm thinks it's some sort of game & Rolf Aldag thinks it's a chatroom. #frustrating

And from a couple of days ago, Geraint Thomas tours the Sky bus as they travel up to the stage 5 start - interesting insight into the riders' routines and preoccupations as they relax before the action begins - including a bit of pole dancing........!
