It's on Eurosport 2 from 3 PM here in Denmark. Dunno what time that would be for you.

I wonder how the people of Nokere would feel if they knew this even got broadcasted in Denmark :p

How come Quick-Step skips this race? And then participate in another Belgian but lower-level race 2 days later.

Last year QS only started with 5 or 4 riders and Nokere refused to pay startmoney for the non-starters. (Which is completely legal, but Lefevre did not like it. )

I really don't understand what happened there.

I think the rider who he was handing off, his team decided to keep the gas on just after a crash which one or two lotto riders was part of and Boeckmans didn't like it. So he decided to take the law into his own hands and slow him down by holding him back to slow him down to the back of the peleton. Crazy!

That was an impressive sprint by Bouhanni!

Boeckmans and Jules arguing while falling down through the peloton gonna be funny of the funniest images of the day.

And the tempers run in the Bouhanni family.

Not so funny if you're Jules or his team.

I hope Boeckmans gets a huge fine.

No Lotto rider crashed. Jules was probably doing some dangerous things and Boeckmans decided to act like God. Boeckmans should be punished, but a 3 month ban is absolutely ridiculous.

Bouhanni played with that field - Have his head screwed on Sunday and he can't be at the pointy end of MSR.

Boeckmans had an argument with Justin Jules? If there's one rider in the peloton I wouldn't want to be on bad terms with, it's Justin Jules...
