Molano has become quite strong, but he‘s now better known for quite bad behaviour in the races. He beat Hugo Page in a race, and now this today. Hard to cheer for someone like Molano.
I hope he does not continue being so rude, because he could cause crashes. Pro cycling has become fast and dangerous enough, so there is no need for beating other riders, or pushing in a sprint with hand off the bars.
There have always been rude riders like Molano. Most important is that they get stopped before something bad happens.
Page and Kanter, Molano‘s victims in 2022, both a fair sportsmen, and don‘t deserve being treated this way by Molano. It‘s now task of organizers and UCI and so on to protect the big majority of riders who want to have a bike race against fair opponents.
