Hofstetter out.
Honest mistake, really.
Probably not even aware of this thing...
He knew what he was doing.
Sure, he knew he was winning.
He just didn't know he'd been in the running of a competition for most top-10s without wins.
I think he was trying to send a message to you especially by pointing to a red and white part of his jersey while saying "shhh, you redheaded Dane, who is only tall enough to reach my left nipple. I don't care about top 10s anymore, I'm a winner now!"
You read all that from a very standard victory celebration?
Guillaume Martin has also picked up three top-tens since the last update.Arensman leaping up the charts.
Kung and Bettiol doing their best in Switzerland
Another one for Van Poppel today. As my pick for this competition, finding him far more interesting to follow than all but a couple of my disastrous CQ team.
Van Poppel closing in fast. 3 out of 3 in the Tour sprint stages so far. Martin's terrain is coming, but he probably has a greater chance of winning a stage?
