Tour De France 2012 Stage 4 Results: Winner, Leaderboard and Highlights

Germany's Andre Greipel won Stage 4 of the Tour de France on a breathtaking final sprint. 

The leaderboard didn't change, though. Fabian Cancellara continued his strong showing thus far with a trouble-free performance that gives him a slight seven-second lead over Bradley Wiggins and Sylvain Chavanel, according to the Tour de France website.

World champion Mark Cavendish took an unfortunate tumble with less than two miles left, but he's going to be alright. He posted this message on his Twitter account afterwards:

"

Ouch..... Crash at 2.5km to finish today. Taken some scuffs to my left side, but I've bounced pretty well again. Congrats to @AndreGreipel.

— Mark Cavendish (@MarkCavendish) July 4, 2012"

He'll be back in the saddle again tomorrow, and you can be sure the champion will continue fighting his way back up the leaderboard.

Here is a video for your viewing pleasure that highlights the furious sprint to the finish line of Stage 4:
