En calma y sin gran novedad transcurrieron los 155 km que el Tour of Britain había de cubrir en la región de Surrey, a las puertas de la capital inglesa, entre las localidades de Epsom y Guildford. El campeón nacional Mark Cavendish (OPQ) se hacía con la victoria en un sprint ascendente con adoquín urbano en el que Enrique Sanz, el mejor de los hombres de Movistar Team en la jornada, lograba el 12º puesto tras un breve ataque final de Alex Dowsett, como informa el equipo de Jaimerena.
Kristian House (Rapha Condor Cycling), Peter Williams (Team IG-Sigma Sport), Lucas Euser (UnitedHealtcare) y Christophe Laborie (Sojasun) fueron los escapados del día, siempre controlados por el Sky de Wiggins y el Omega Pharma de Cavendish.
Fue un día de tranquilidad para Ángel Madrazo, que hoy se tomó un merecido día de resuello tras cuatro fugas que le han otorgado matemáticamente la montaña -sólo tendrá que terminar mañana la carrera- y el liderato en los sprints, que mañana deberá disputar con el local Williams (IGS) con cinco puntos de ventaja -habrá 15 en juego, repartidos en tres intermedios en las vueltas 2, 6 y 8 del circuito final de Londres-.
Los 88 km por la ribera del Támesis y la meta en Whitehall definirán una carrera que lidera con comodidad Bradley Wiggins (Sky). Su compañero David López es el mejor español en la ganeral, 4º, justo por delante de Sergio Pardilla.
