Tour De France 2020 with SPOILERS

[Adam4868]

So he should avoid sprints if he would like to avoid this danger
Because it will not be eliminated
Nature of the game

Except I didn't see anyone else playing bumper cars in that sprint ? Because some get away with it does that make it ok ? Maybe he was trying to make himself some space to avoid a crash,but that's his mistake for putting himself there.Right decision for me.

Definitely the right decision. He was in the wrong, but no harm intended.

Meanwhile, I've finally caught up with coverage of Sam's first win. Oh wow. The most genuine, emotional interview I've seen in sport for a loooong time. I was bit neutral about the guy before, but he's really won me over. So pleased for him.

Same here
But
There will always be someone
It may be WVA next time
If you sprint you accept this risk

 

[matticus]

In WVA's interview (on ITV?) he said he stuck to the right-hand side, and he didn't think anyone COULD come round on his right. This suggests a couple of things:
- he's deliberately riding with a bit more of a safety-first mentality than many sprinters. And
- if he had stuck like glue to the right for another 10metres, Sagan wouldn't have been tempted to start the Shaganigans*, and maybe WVA would have gained a place?

Anyway, an interesting bit of aggro to entertain us, no-one hurt, and the Green Jersey battle has got a LOT more spicey. Allons-Y!
