Absolutely pathetic from Red Bull. You had a 4vs1. You should've kept attacking Jonas over and over again until he completely breaks. But of course they're riding for UCI points. This is why they need to reduce the amount of points you get for lesser placings so that we get an actual race instead of whatever this is.
Its not a 1 day race bro, they care about distancing the other GC guys

I think they rode for GC, not necessarily UCI points

Only if you underestimate Jonas' strength.

You really think the team that will reliably finish somewhere between second and fifth in the three-year cycle cares about UCI points? LMAO.

For some reason these teams do yeah... I don't know why and it's a bad argument here cause it has nothing to do with it, but these top teams care about it way more than you think. Not only UAE.

Yes, right..
Because Vingegaard would follow Van Dijke's, who are no threat to him.
Literally doesn't make sense for Red Bull to try 4v1.

Please point me to any race in the past 3 years where Red Bull demonstrably raced for UCI points. Because I can't think of one.
