Why would Moreno want to give Zaballa anything? I wouldn't understand that behaviour from anybody, much less from a rider that coming into this race had a blank palmares and a much needed team.

This is becoming a sport for spoiled brats :D

Yeah, it's getting hardwired into the riders' psyche, I'm afraid.

I once attacked when a rivals chain fell... I thought then and still do now that it was fair game.

Competition is competition and there's good luck and bad luck. This fact is somewhat obfuscated by false sportsmanship. It spoils it as much as poor sportsmanship.

Thing is, this wasn't even a chain issue... it was two riders riding for themselves, one defending his leader's jersey (so I can understand he didn't feel the need to attack before the final km) and the other one attacking him to get the lead. Then they get to the finish line and... :confused:
