Peter Sagan wins Tour de France stage 2 by a nosebleed (video)

Peter Sagan won his ninth career Tour de France stage, taking a stage-two bunch sprint finish by a nose Sunday.

The world champion from Slovakia was edged for the win in Saturday’s opening stage by Colombian Fernando Gaviria.

Sagan was wrongly thrown out of last year’s Tour for a clash with Mark Cavendish in stage four.

The Tour de France continues Monday with a team trial, live on NBCSN and NBC Sports Gold (full broadcast schedule here).
