he also called Würtz a bastard when he attacked in the crosswind a couple of days ago. Lefevere must have had a great influence on him

He says it is quite windy today, to the GC guys all want to be up front, as gaps can easily appear..... it is also why the tempo is quite high.

I almost vomited when Chris Anker praised Asgreen for that after Staghøj asked if that wasnt a bully move. I agree with Chris Anker on a lot of things, but this one, I dont get it at all.tobydawq said:HelloDolly said:See Asgreen push that Sunweb rider Bol off fthe road from trying to go in the breakawa

Dont they want to watch good and interesting races? Then please dont praise team and riders for being total bullies and unsportsmanlike and flat out neutralizing the race like this. Honestly I find it disgusting. Has it always been as blatant as this Tour? I dont remember that being the case at all. I have seen this happen on a lot of other stages as well, the break has went early on pretty much every stage.

2009, Voeckler winning stage 5 in Perpignan.

This isn't what you want to see but it's not on the level of Lance and the gang bullying anyone who hurt his feelings or whatever by not allowing them into breaks and so on.Valv.Piti said:I almost vomited when Chris Anker praised Asgreen for that after Staghøj asked if that wasnt a bully move.

I don't at all agree with the behaviour mentioned here, it is disgusting, but unless it's physically dangerous I think it's something the peloton should handle internally. Find a way to punish Ineos if you don't like it.
