As Rasmussen Said,
Only way Thomas Degendt doesnt win the Super Combatitvity is the colour of his passport..
Disappointing to be honest giving it to Barguil who already has the Polka Dot Jerset
What a bitter man Rasmussen has become.

barguil rode a fantastic race, but he already has the polka dot. I think de gendt or contador should have won and rasmussen makes a good point.
Nah, Contador shouldn't have gotten it either.

No he doesnt !. Got to zip suit up, change glasses, put helmet on and get on his bike first. Maybe take vest off too.
What about the shoes? :lol:

How do we know what kind of shoes he's wearing?
Or if he's wearing shoes at all?

Sand shoes !

No. Not at all disappointing. What did De Gendt actually accomplish with his breakaways? **** all except log lots of kms in the break. His best stage placement is like 46th or something. Barguil won stages, made some memorable rides and truly animated the race. He was the most attack minded climber in the race. I guess De Gendt was somewhat in the running for the polka dot jersey, but he was never really close to winning.
I think you've missed the point of the super combative prize

Whoever targets the combativity award should never win it. We aggression with the intent to win or get results, not pointless showmanship

Whoever targets a jersey should not win it?

Combativity should have a points system like the other jerseys.

For many years KOM was won by long range attacks and not necessarily stage wins or the best climber in the race.

Sean Kelly won his green jerseys by going for every sprint point he could but he did not manage a lot of stage wins.
