Tour de France Tour de France 2022: Stage 6 (Binche – Longwy, 219.9k)

The question is:
Did WvA loose the jersey on purpose (going out with a bang)?

If he just followed wheels, he could have had a chance for stage win (more points for green, bonus seconds for yellow)... But probably at the cost of having his team work for him.

Team could easily have sat there after the first 3 guys went on the break and did nothing. If others want to race they can, and WVA outsprint them. If not you can leave those guys take a load of time.
