A discutable sprint by Hagen.

He first closed in Petacchi and Farrar by going to the right, Farrar was shut down. Then Petacchi wanted to pass through the middle and Hagen again changed line...
A zigzag sprint..borderline behaviour.

A bit of a shame because Hagen doesn't need this. He needs to sprint in straight lines.


Disqualification for me - the opening blocking off of Farrar was pretty bad, but then he quite clearly tries to block Petacchi when he veers off wildly


The sprint:

It depends entirely on the comissaire i think. Different ones are stricter than others.

I agree it needs disqualifation. But, he's young, and didn't know betterRolling Eyes

Note: I'm not trying to defending EBH here.

I'm Norwegian too. I agree that his line is poor, sometimes his style reminds me of Abdoujaparov. He needs to learn to focus his power and look up at the same time. I doubt he is the kind of guy that sets out to block others intentionally, but he needs a wake-up call after this one. At least this was worse than Cavendish's at the Tour last year.

Bennati 2007 tdf.
Petacchi giro 2007
and come on.... I can see you're point..BUT !
Every sprinter have done it, edvald will do it again, every sprinter will do it again, it just happens.
And the other sprinters have been sprinting 600times, of course it will happen.

A clear disqualification. This is worse than Cav's because Cavendish actually was helped by a turn, the sprint today was as straight as it can be.

But I don't think that he is intentionally trying to block them, but that doesn't change anything when he hinders his oppenents.

i agree but, he don't got any experience in this situation.
And he aren't doing anything intentionally as you say.

Not nearly as bad, just rewatched his 2 2007 stage wins

helped by a bend? Go back and re-watch the sprint will you. It was a bulge in the barrier that gave the effect of Cavendish squesing Hushovd out of that one. But i'm over that, and will not argue it any longer.

hellboy
Just closed his eyes and went for the win, the style that can bring some massive crashes.
Go Roman!

Those aren't examples. That's naming a 21 stage race for 2 of them, praying that there's going to be an example somewhere in there, and ignoring the third one.

And yes, it will happen again....and again whoever does it should be disqualified.
