How on earth is that helpful? What the flying fuck is so hard about simply having a live ranking that says 'xx km', followed by the standings at that moment? Like in almost every major cycling competition that's not a championships race.

 

The sheer stupidity of these people makes me want to throw my laptop out of the window.
