The good news is, the chips-thrower was arrested imediately.

« Il a passé un après-midi bien arrosé » : le spectateur qui a lancé des chips sur Pogacar placé en garde à vue

INFO LE PARISIEN. Le jeune homme qui a lancé des chips sur Pogacar et Vingegaard a été arrêté par les gendarmes puis a été placé en garde à

I would love to see mug shot of his "lovely" face. Preferably at 6 in the morning

Gaudu isn't the same since being 3rd @ the 2023 Paris-Nice!

Wasn't he second in front of Vingegaard?

 

[Rackham]

I want to know what happened... to the actual packet of crisps.

Did he throw all of them at the riders? What flavor were they? Did any rider stop to actually eat them? Is that why Evenepoel lost more time at the end?

So many questions.

It looked like a light-blue Lays bag which would be salt and vinegar I think? Would be fitting.

We only saw him throw it at both Pog and Vinge on camera, but he might have thrown it on others.

He is a helmet.

I wonder what kind of crime throwing chips at people actually is, though. And is it punished harder if you‘re in a bike race?

Probably a hefty fine and banned from sporting events.

Unfortunately, it's kind of hard to ban someone from an even with no entrance.

Jonas more concerned about the booing than the chips.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Maybe they could use a restraining order to prevent him from going near Pogačar and Vingegaard.

Wild guess? Drunk in public. Spend the night in the can.

Yeah sorry, I heard he spent the night in jail, but it was a wild guess about the charge. Was that what they hit him with? Seemed easy enough. Or...littering?

From Sporza: The French police were able to quickly apprehend the person who threw chips during the Tour de France. The 32-year-old Breton spent a night sobering up in jail and is being questioned today, as reported by Le Parisien. [...] He is accused of intentional assault.

A Pringles can, hopefully.

first degree littering

 

[Rob5091]

first degree littering

Littering with intent?

 

[staubsauger]

Yeah, of course. My error!

Assault

My (not entirely serious) suggestion for how the chips-thrower should be punished:

Tied to a chair for one hour, with the riders being allowed to throw chips at him.
If he can catch a chip in his mouth and eat it, he'll be allowed to be freed early.

Change that to microchips and I'm on-board.

Fatco would win the GC of chip eating contest. If he had passed the chip sprint first this would have never happened to pogi/vingo

Nuisance, in law, a human activity or a physical condition that is harmful or offensive to others and gives rise to a cause of action. A public nuisance created in a public place or on public land, or affecting the morals, safety, or health of the community, is considered an offense against the state.

@Armchair cyclist I think you can unsticky this thread

And I thought Pogacar delivered a memorable performance...
