It's not the jacket that is the problem, it's the fatigue... any dummy can put on a jacket under normal circumstances

Possibly, but if you notice nearly all of the leading riders and chasers put their jackets on several hundred metres before. When you get close to the top the wind plays a bigger part and it’s an added risk.

there are three kinds of people in this world: those who can put a jacket on, those who can't, and Jai Hindley

Counterattacked? Come on. Geoghegan Hart had been doing all the work and was losing ground to Bilbao. No counterattack was forthcoming.

You guys are so adverse to even the most minuscule risks.

If Kelderman was in the process of losing 5+ minutes I'd agree with you, but he is still very much in the picture.

So, we are on stage 19, and the pink jersey has only been worn for two days by a guy who has at least one WT victory on his palmares.
