Brajkovic actually thought he won.  He should have been disqualified for irregular sprinting though.
And u should shut up some times Watch your own sprint on video. There are things to be said about it 
Too bad you take offence.
And i'm not the only one who thought so

After trying to run Uran into the barriers, yes 
Are you going to say to everyone who thinks that to shut up too? Seriously though, you know I respect you. But you can't expect me to say everything you do is great
The sprint you rode was questionable, and you are not the first one to raise your arms for 2nd place who gets laughed at either. Shake it off and focus on next season, don't waiste your time telling people to shut up who simply express their opinion on a race. Thank you.

STOP THE PRESSES. I'M GOING TO AGREE WITH RUBEN.
Yeah, the sprint was irregular. He may not like it, but there's not much arguing to be made, it was irregular and that's it 
Disqualified? harsh. Relegated to the back of his group (3rd place) would be much more fitting.
I think he probably took offence to the "thought he won" thing. With race radios it's kinda hard to not know there's someone else ahead, so I doubt he thought he won.

What's to taken offence in it, it's funny for us, and it's not that I blame him for thinking he'd won, it's a common mistake. Boonen, Zabel, Bettini, Freire, all great riders have made that mistake in their career.
Am I now forbidden to laugh about it because you posted on the cyanide forums in the past Gianni? It has nothing to do with lack of respect of your great performance in Lombardy. It's just common cycling humor. |

I think he just didnt have his communication in his ear
I dont think he ever relayed once, Uran did everything to get to Cunego. Brajkovic just though, yeah, go on fool, take me to that sprint.
then of course he knew Uran would be faster so he moved to the barriers
at least I had a good laugh. dont know, just dont like him that much.

Dankan: Sorry guy, you should not really overdo it once we get someone like him in the forums. I would myself not find it funny.

I find it incredible that we have a pro cyclist on this forum! If that is true that is. Pretty awesome if you ask me. |
