Great race today.
However, it shows a lack of respect to not interview todays stage winner and also ignore him when he was leading the KOM the other . Why has ITV 4 not employed a spanish speaking commentator or translator to interview Spanish speaking riders? On the continent, host countries make the effort to speak to english only speaking riders. ( I am assuming the lack of interview is based on his lack of english, rather than just being ignored because he is Spanish.)
I am sure I am not the only one who would appreciate a pre race interview with the ex Olympic Champion and his view on ToB, and his recovery from injury. Also Basso, a GT winner was worth a longer interview than a brief couple of sentences the other day.
