Madrazo, en el podio © Movistar
Sir Bradley Wiggins, como estaba previsto, se adjudicó la general final del Tour of Britain (Vuelta a Gran Bretaña), que concluyó con la octava etapa sopbre 88 kilómetros y en un circuito urbano en pleno centro de Londres.
El campeón británico Mark Cavendish no quiso desaprovechar tamaña ocasión y se apuntó su tercera victoria al sprint lanzado por el italiano Alessandro Petacchi, por delante de Bennett y Viviani, con Enrique Sanz en la novena plaza.
David López, cuarto, y Sergio Pardilla, sexto, terminaron entre los diez primeros de la clasificación general.
El otro protagonista español fue Ángel Madrazo que subió al podio como ganador de los sprints y la montaña. Matemático ganador de la clasificación de la Montaña, el cántabro salía con cinco puntos de ventaja al ruedo de Whitehall -pasando por la orilla del Támesis, Westminster o el Big Ben-, para defender su liderato en los Sprints Intermedios ante Pete Williams (IGS), con quince en juego En el segundo de los tres sprints, el británico empujó con su mano al cántabro para reducir a un solo punto una ventaja que era de dos en el primer embalaje, y que quedó en nada tras el tercero y último. Sin embargo, el Jurado Técnico actuó de oficio ante la discutible maniobra y Madrazo recogió su maillot verde en el podio londinense.
