It's good and proper to give someone a fine for something they can't help? Riiiiight, then...

Definitely looks broken:

Looks like you can still get away with it in the NBA. Seems rather strange that Europe is now more prude then USA in this regards. It i guess started in football, on where heaven forbid an athlete took the shirt off.

To be fair, in football - and I suppose basketball as well - when a rider scores a goal, he'll usually have to continue playing afterwards.

And just to be clear; Del Toro never actually took his jersey off.

P.S. But OK, at least such things help with improving the safety.
The old-world sense of decorum, formality if you like, not prudishness. On the latter, just go to any newspaper kiosk or turn on the TV in Europe and prude doesn't exist.

UAE doing more and more for other riders, Pogacar is the obvious focus, but there are many quality racers in their system, don't think that Isaac has a big ego, doesn't feel like a caged animal.. I don't know what will happen with standing room only, Almeida, Ayuso, Torres, Morgado, Yates, Vine, McNulty, Soler, Sivakov, Navarez, couple others on form to win something and structure right now looks like Pogacar gets first right of refusal and the others wait for scraps. This has got to be like drugs for these new racers, taste winning and want more..maybe too many race horses...?

Or all reaping the benefits from being on a great team, racing with great teammates and only getting better by the friendly competition. Racing together as a unit.
