Yeah, surely also Garcia only celebrated a good performance
That was a decent stage, just a shame they left Valverde behind. Not nice to see Anton suffer either, hopefully he can bounce back and grab a stage win later.

Nice. Maybe he'll buy that

You can cheer for 4th place, you just can't cheer coming across the line in 4th place believing you actually won. Can you pay any less attention in a professional bike race to not realize the 3 guys up the road less than a minute ahead of you?
Adam Hansen on Twitter:
"HansenAdam I don't mind Team Sky putting it in the gutter, but how about next time you don't slam us in the gutter. I'm going for an X Ray...."
So not only did Sky take advantage of a crash, they actually caused it...
about Purito..
he will be back. Sidewinds can destroy riders..
For example Taaramäe as been described sidewind as he's worst enemy at cycling. He just can not handle it..it can take more out of you then hard climbing day

I don't think it's "low", but anyway, you should have expected it, because I've always been consistent with this - if there's a crash, the race must go on, whoever goes down.
I disagree fully. This is extremely low.
To each his own.
You're just saying that because you're spanish and therefore on drugs
#anglophonesdontdope
Yeah, you foreigners are shifty, especially the ones we didn't civilize with our empire...
There is an obvious problem with unwritten rules though... And anyway, it's not like they wait for everyone who crashes. Still, you're bang on the money - Sky could well fall foul to a Spanish Armada.
While the unwritten rules are part of cycling parlance
they are unwritten. they are not official
for itv4 roger hammond made some good points
1. there is no real respected figure in most pelotons (no indurain, armstrong etc.), the closest these days is voigt and cancellara
2. they are unwritten, not official
3. they are so diluted, its impossible to tell who should wait and who for etc
4. there are so many young guns in the peloton who dont know the rules
5. sponsorship is so crucial and hard to find riders have to keep racing
his conclusion, scrap them and just race
also if sky did 'take out' movistar then they will be dismissed from the race so otherwise it was just an accident

I remember Sky riders urging to wait when Evans punctured in this year Tour de France. Two sets of standards?
Ugly.
Yeah, there is really not one difference when a stage is raced normally ( not going say how the crash happend and if Sky caused it as I didn't see it ) and when it was sabotaged by some idiots..
