It has to go to the UCI disciplinary panel which takes time. 2 weeks or so, I read. Crazy.
It's possible that it has to be after the B sample is confirmed too.

A great but slightly strange win.
I was watching on French Eurosport and they thought it was Jan Barta who had won until well after the finish.
As Barta, sorry Postlberger went off the front I was reminded of Jelle Nijdam winining Tour de France stages in the late 1980s. Except it didn't really look like that Nijdam was a monster and would launch off the front of the Superconfex train with a couple km to go and just keep getting further away. Postlberger was more like one of those pacemakers in 1500m record attempts who would suddenly discover that no one was with them and then sneak home just ahead of the pack. A great effort, but what was everyone else up to?

Did anyone else who watched today's stage/the highlights think that a LOT of the riders were in skinsuits - are the pros moving away from the jersey/shorts combo...

Aye, I remembered him being up there in one of the Spring rides (on checking it was E3), but that was some victory! Well done to him.

A very gracious Sam Bennett interviewed by ol' rubber face Matt Stephens. Didn't work out today, couldn't happen to a nicer guy, holy sh*t we might have to defend the jersey tomorrow etc etc..

But what the fark was going on with the audio synchronisation, or is it just me?

The audio got quite a bit ahead of the video through the interviews with Bennett and White. That, or I'm thinker than I drunk I am.

I'm on the cider and it seemed fine to me. This is obviously the way forward...
