PhiberAwptik said:I imagine that's a result of poor tactics from BMC, not the individual riders. It would be nice if BMC would stop burning their young talent to support a guy like Hushovd who clearly is done.
For me the biggest dissapointment was tactics or lack of. Why BMC, SKY and OPQS waited behind Cancellara and didnt attack him relentlessly was a big miss for me. Watching EBH lose the wheel in RVV was far too predictable and continues the general cynical, conservative tone of cycling at the moment. Classics become less interesting year on year, route tinkering doesnt mean anything if teams dont take any proactivity.
