The entire ride and now also the entire behavior around and after the finish just feels...off. This is just so weird, it's almost like he either wasn't allowed or didn't want to win.

 

Well, Yates it is.

And for the first time ever a Mexican cyclist wears the maglia rosa

The last 2 Giros have been awful to watch. Roglic too defensive in 2023, Pogacar too good in 2024.    Hoping for some competitive action this year

Ayuso showing very good form yesterday and UAE as a whole were on point as usual.  Del Toro especially is doing a breakthrough performance (at least for me) and having a Mexican in this sport is somet

Del Toro seems happy enough, so maybe he genuinely did not have much today.  He certainly was not eager to go when Carapaz offered him the road.

As you say, if this had been a boxing match in a 40s movie.....

I truly hope he didn't have any energy left anymore and he just managed to make it look like he was all ok (because he looked like that the entire way). Comments on the Dutch corners of the internet are....not positive, to say the least :lol:

 

Mildest one so far..

 

User A: "I was away today, looks like I missed something?"

User B: "You missed Del Toro's rapid rise to the lead of the all time dumbest rider rankings."

 

It's just such a shame too.

What is a bit sad is that I have not seen one :MEX flag out there.  Of course, it is not part ofthe culture as it is for :COL & :ECU but all the same.....history is being made.

Looked back at the earlier part & there were actually some Mexican flags, just not at the big mountain summits.

Britain thanks Van Aert for his help :d (and also the management of the UAE team)

      Malinin  opted for the 4-Axel in his Short Program, but faltered, landing him in 3rd thus far (and only 0.05 away from 4th!).  Surely he has the tools to rise back up in the Free Program.  (Also, perhaps this will serve to show him that he is in fact beatable.)

      I think they incorrectly translated Ukrainian word "nahorody" - it is not a full synonym of "medal". Its cocrrect translation is "award". Meanwhile russian tennis playes switched for Potapova ->  Rakhimova ->

      Ukrainian diver Lyskun switches allegiance to Russia, loses all medals | Olympics News | Al Jazeera   'loses all medals'   I would assume Al Jazeera could have been a bit clearer and mention this would presumably only be national medals. I mean, it's not like the Ukrainian federation, or any single federation for that matter, has the power to strip her of her world and European championships medals I hope (not for her sake, but because that would be a super weird precedent)

      Confirmation about the broadcasting rights.   If I'm reading it right, for most of Europe it will now be exclusive to Discovery/Eurosport or whatever brand they use.     For outside Europe, it's on YouTube. For Planet VPN....well, let us know if you find out.   fil-taker-list-25-26-winterberg-1.pdf   Also, should have mentioned above that the Nations Cup races today are just over one leg, whereas there are two runs in each of the World Cup races.

      Surely. Her first coach now works in russia (and grandma lives in russia according to Sereda). They were in contact and despite of full funding from  the girl decided to become the star of russian propaganda.  As I saw in X: "It took the Russians four years of war to find a relatively well-known sports personality to carry out such a propaganda operation."
