Considering there was contact involved and deviation from sprint line was rather substantial, both riders affected by it, i feel that the relegation was justified. If such behaviour would be acceptable and to be considered as normal, then pushing back would be considered acceptable behaviour too. In the past we seen that is not the case, massive crashes and injuries involved, ultimately it was decided that such behaviour should not be acceptable and relegation should be the result.

Hard to say so far because this is the first stage I had tuned into. But I definitely enjoyed the Slovenian ad where I think it was Jakob Omrzel who did a TV ad for some sort of an orange drink?
Or was it a different Slovenian rider who currently rides for Bahrain?

I do it all the time when I'm not available to watch live. No use of phone (people are too much on their phone anyways), no apps or news and only start replay in the evening. Sometimes I know the results but it's a likeable winner, I still watch.
But maybe I can do it because I've got no friends

He's talking about convincing me that watching a re-play is "just the same" as watching.

My good luck was directed at your attempt at explaining to RhD why it's a good solution.

Likely Moho.

For sure i would be happy for Rui and the thing is if he wouldn't deviate he would still very likely win. Said that and weighting what is worse, such relegation or one of the historic crashes, on where this was still allowed and considered normal. Long term i feel that relegation approach is much better and Rui can still win a stage at some point in the future.

He wasn't relegated due to winning, but do to deviating from the sprint line. His mistake.

I understand that. I don’t think he deviated enough to warrant relegation
Congratulations to Dylan, his seventh win in Slovenia, equalling Boštjan Mervar record. Three times the stage finished in Ormož, you guessed it, three times Dylan won.
Chapeau to Nejc Komac, almost pulled a van Aert today.
