Stage 2: Boonen Sprints to Victory, Voeckler masterful

In a massive chaotic sprint, Boonen confirmed what many said about him after last year's tour de France. He's the favorite to win this year's green jersey. Boonen outsprinted Thor Hushovd and Robbie Mc Ewen to win this year's 2nd stage. He will be wearing tomorrow the green jersey.
The Heroics of the day belong to Voeckler on home soil, His breakaway with 3 other riders for 130 km was highlighted by a masterful sprint to get the Polka-Dot jersey, they got caught 4 km before the end but, his mastery of attack and counter attack was one of today's tour de France best moments.
