Not since Cummings caught Pinot and Bardet have we seen such a collective Gallic Pacte Suicide.Utter
French
Nonsense
Or when Cummings mugged Pinot and Bardet in MendeOne of the funniest finishes you're likely to see, shades of Simon Clarke and Di Marchi in the Giro a few years ago.
I mean we dont know how his legs felt. But he had been on the wheels for a long time while the others pulled full gas, so he should have something.Lapeira and Gruel throwing it away is obviously a big mistake. But can we say that Bissegger failing to attack as both group came together is of similar stupidity?

Lapeira and Gruel's decision making will give everyone something to think about.A philosophical conversation is taking place on the road
I'm so glad. Trentin deserved a victory like this at the end of his career.
If by “something to think about” you mean “a coaching guide in what not to do in the final km of a cycling classic,” then yes. Plenty of food for thought.Lapeira and Gruel's decision making will give everyone something to think about.![]()
He is not retiring right?I´m so glad. Trentin deserved a victory like this at the end of his career.
