We get it. Taking the time at the top of Iseran is the stupid part |

Yes. Nobody is contesting stopping with these condition.
The problem is telling the riders after the climb that was the finish and they will take those times for the GC. Complete bullshit.

There's no way that much fell and melted in the last 30 minutes. Should have called this a long time ago.

You could end a football game after 75% because both teams always try their best to score a goal.
You can't end a cycling stage after 75% because not everyone is always trying to go their fastest.

I'll wait until the organizers release a statement, there must have been some reason behind their decision. |

Landslide was on the mountain, they showed the pictures of it
I think the organizers need to clarify what exactly caused the neutralization, because the decision of taking times atop the Izeran can only mean one one thing: they were going to climb the final mountain of th eday with the snow untin the landslide happened, which would make sense taking the times on top of Izeran.
This, of course, depends on what time the landslide ocurrer. Because the snow was there for over an hour |

Let's be honest. Good decision seeing some images.
There are more important things.
Last forum member who thinks. Thanks for that.
What a fuck ASO should have done? That was good and fast decision.
Alaphilippe le would have lost another minut at least.
Uran would have been dropped
Simon Yates would not have won he's 3rd. stage.
Only possible difference would have between Kuijswijk and Bernal groups. Will it be more or less , we will never know.
Thomas should be pissed, he was resting and ready.
