Tour de France 2017 ***SPOILERS***

Kittel was coming up very fast but surely a dead heat...

View attachment 360863

From the photo, Kittel is ahead by a fraction of a tyre, you can see slightly more of his tyre is into the red line.
But then again, do these photos take account of perspective?

I'd have given it to EBH but I do lament the way ties have become so devalued in an only-one-can-win culture. I actually find cricket ties particularly satisfying.

I don't see how they could confidently award it to either. My sense in looking at the photo, and accounting for perspective, was that EBH has it, but that is only a sense - nothing objective. Surely there should be a case for declaring it a dead heat. If they are worried about setting a precedent - gosh, how often do you see anything this close?

wait a minute, so basically the photo shows a line for 1st 2nd and 3rd but the lines for 1st and 2nd are so close it looks like one line but it's thicker than the 3rd line so presumably there's a definite difference so if you remove the 2nd line you'll see more of EBH's wheel meaning Kitten got it.

Maybe they've blown up the pic x10000

Maybe Quick-Step had more of a bonus to 'offer' the judges than DD.

Kittel won by 6mm or 3/1000th of a second according to the evening ITV highlights show, although ASO (or whoever) haven't released any high definition images of the photo finish.

Sorry to bring back the past, and apologies if it'e already been posted, but I've just seen this on Facebook clearly showing Sagan's complete innocence.

Hope that fackin' judge is forced to watch this and has to recompense Sagan.

There's a reason to run bigger tyres ! Fast run in aswell up to 70 k
