Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift

20 seconds penalty.
Difficult to avoid when it's right in front of the camera bike.

"Normal" is to draft the team car to the back of the convoy, then car hop up to the peloton. Drafting right past the convoy is a bit OTT.

Not to mention a bit dangerous from the footage I saw.

And instead of just accepting the very minimal 20 seconds and being thankful they got away so lightly they decide to make a fuss and say it's unjustified. https://www.cyclingweekly.com/racin...y-for-demi-vollering-at-tour-de-france-femmes
Not just rule breaking but downright dangerous

I believe someone in an earlier stage got a 1 minute for the same reason so they got off lightly . I watched it live and it was so blatant to watch and made me flinch when I saw the car in front of the SD car brake . They were lucky not to permanently injury their star rider .

UCI have now thrown Stam off the race and fined him 500 Swiss Francs. Good decision.

Blimey, sounds like he didn't help himself: ... and in view of the inappropriate comments made by Mr Stam to the UCI Commissaires’ Panel ...

I tend to not support SDworx not because I have anything against them, just because they win so much.

But they seem to be working on becoming unpopular.

Mind you, the role of "underdog" doesn't exactly suit AvV

The peleton still haven't learnt , take the breakaway seriously or you will get found out.

I see Vollering (00:00:01) took 21 sec on AvV (00:00:22) today. So back to where we were.

Did AvV get held up behind the crash ? Or was it a split ,Will the time be restored ?

Dunno. I haven't seen anything, just had a peek at the rankings on the website.

Edit. Yes, time has been restored. AvV now showing as same time as DV (00:00:01) In the GC AvV has 12 seconds on DV

I really hope this mucking about backfires on AvV and Vollering

This is great. Vollering is doing the right thing. AvV is going to have to go some on the last climb if she wants to win.

I suddenly want Kasia to win
