Re: Re:

If the judges are harsher on him than on other sprinters, he brought it on himself.

Two (or more in Bouhanni's case) wrongs don't make a right

There's been a few times where he should have been DQ'd but for some reason wasn't. This was one where he shouldnt have been DQ'd

Indeed, if that was Bouhanni they'd have disqualified him.

Rules should be equal for everyone. Sprints are becoming more meaningless by the day.

Can we just have cameras in every race Bouhanni is in?

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Pretty bad high speed crash right there. Hopefully limited injuries.

Anyway happy to see Van Asbroeck winning again.

It wasn't even Raynne that is fighting it's Laporte. Bouhanni actually steps in to calm it down.

But everyone writes that 'now the other Bouhanni is fighting'

Cofidis sprinters sure have a temper

According to the article on the CN homepage it was R. Bouhanni fighting, and Laporte stepping in.
But the other way round would make more sense, since it was Laporte getting punished. Or, well, it would make the punishment make more sense.

every article i've read says it was Bouhanni fighting and they're all wrong.

 

[Geraint Too Fast]

Have you seen the video? It's definitely Rayane who's fighting.

It was Bouhanni and you're wrong. It is Laporte who is stepping in. You can see his number in the video - http://i.imgur.com/3hv39Ns.jpg

looking around you might be right. Was using a french startlist which had rayanne as nr 78 but seems like that is van stayen

And thus the overall - for a record-extending fourth time!

Bouhanni won Stage 3 earlier today.

Solo win too.

Maris Bogdanovics (Rietumu-Delfin) wins the Baltic Chain Tour, Chris Opie (ONE Pro Cycling) wins the Ronde van Midden Nederland.

Re:

Was a pretty hard edition once again, 34 km cobbles and 33 km offroad, as evidenced by Van Aert winning. Dupont and Planckaert have had the most amazing season, and with Planckaert moving up I wonder if Dupont will also move soon. They could both be really useful in the cobbled classics. Also, great ride by Steels!

Edit: I just saw that only 48 riders finished

Duponts team (Verandes Willems) is actually looking to step up a level and I tought he recieved an offer from Marseille-KTM or am I wrong?

I gather from the Twitter feed that the moto took a wrong turn on the Worlds circuit.
