Maybe, but its Nibali we are talking about. As i've said many times, he doesn't give a fuck, he just wants to win. And its good TV, so hey. |

Movistar/Bahrain attacked when Dumoulin was peeing... Great champs right?
Foulplay at it's best. Riis will still celebrate that.
Not really, but the reason Bahrain and Movistar are doing this is because Tom said what he said yesterday... thats why I said it was a stupid move by him
Calm down, it aint over, they will prob get back
It's not jsut the words. They are desperate. Mountain goat Quintana and Tour winner Nibali could not drop TomTom on multi mountain stages on their own. Clearly they do everything to win. As it seems, they are even crossing that line where nature calls. If you support this action you support complete anarchy in the peloton...
Are we sure that the attack came after a piss break? Because some are saying that the gap opened up on a descent.
Yes, he pissed and when he was just making contact with the field, they attacked.

Even Pozzovivo up front.
Cant see why Lotto NJ, Orica, Trek is chasing? Their riders are way down compared to places 1-6 |

Anyways, lets wait and see who did what and when before getting super butthurt and stuff... as I've said, it makes for a great spectacle.
Edit: Rumours no pee break. |

This is absolutely lit... It's pretty bad by Movistar and Bahrain but Dumoulin shouldn't expect any fair play after the shit talk, he picked a bad spot to piss and they took full advantage of it...
It's bad but to expect fair play 2 days from Milan after shit talking is very naive.
Confirmed by Eurosport it was not nature break. TD just caught in wrong split |

Speak about Fake news and people getting way ahead with their blind hatred towards other people. This is great example. |

"confirmed"
"hate train"
They said they just got information that it "probably" was no pee break.
That's not what I would call a confirmation.
And nobody here "hates", except maybe me. But I hate Nibalis arrogance since a few years already, as well as Quintanas lack of character.
Also seeing people like Riis defending that attack, even when it was stated that it was a pee break, makes me a bit sick, since that is basically the worst thing you can do, besides punching someone on the bike.

Paul, you should take a chill pill matey. You literally hoped Quintana and Nibali would crash on Stelvio the other time.
I don't defend it per se, I try to explain why it happened (which apparently wasn't the case anyways as its just bad positioning, but lets see what Demo says). |

Well, Nibali also attacked Froome, when his chain slipped. Also, have you forgotten the Stelvio stage already?
The stelvio stage is BS talk, the race was launched, they waited a bit, they can't wait forever.
The chain incident, Nibali was miles away from the lead. None compares to this one. |

We should just ignore him at this point, he couldn't realistically expect them to wait more than they did... |

I'm totally chill.
But, I would still hope they crash, because of...how did you call it? "Karma 101"
"I don't defend it per se, I try to explain why it happened"
You still never said that this is a shitty attitude to attack him like that.

You're accepting what fits your narrative as correct informatipn and totally disputing what suddenly doesn't
RAI literally went and asked Sunweb's DS, he said he was caught in the wrong split
