Nah, Contador shouldn't have gotten it either.Frankschleck said:Hugo Koblet said:What a bitter man Rasmussen has become.silvergrenade said: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
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.

No he doesnt !. Got to zip suit up, change glasses, put helmet on and get on his bike first. Maybe take vest off too.
How do we know what kind of shoes he's wearing?
Or if he's wearing shoes at all?

I think you've missed the point of the super combative prizejsem94 said: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.
+1 well deservedTonton said:I would give it to Barguill. He has been aggressive in breaks and "a la pedale" against the GC guys.
Not that big an accomplishment I think.cipurian said:Lol chicken has "twiterblocked by chris froome" on his twitter page.
SeriousSam said:Whoever targets the combativity award should never win it. We aggression with the intent to win or get results, not pointless showmanship
It's not a breakaway prize.Red Rick said:What other breaks was Barguil involved in other than Foix, I think Station de Rousses and Chambery?

Barguil was very aggressive and not just for show.
