Commentator 1 "We are passing by the city famous also by two celebrities borne there, the first one, Ivo Van Damm, you certainly know this name, the famous athletics memorial and stadium is named after him, he died at 22, was a very decent middle racer...!"

Commentator 2 "Yes, sure I know Van Damme, I saw many his films"

Ugh...

 

You can't even have a small race incident these days without the referees throwing someone out...

It's less bad than earlier this week when someone's empty gel package was blown out of his pocket by the wind and he was DQ'ed for it.

Aaaaand Michael Schär DQ'ed for throwing his drink bottle away 'in open nature' (he threw it towards a group of fans who were eagerly waiting for it so obviously it was not going to end up in nature).

Perfectly fine with UCI making rules to stop waste going everywhere along the route but this... Bah!

Exactly, look at the context...there's a significant difference between throwing your crap in some forest or field or dumping a bottle (a very wanted object) basically at the feet of some spectators..

One of them even strongly signalling for him to throw it.

Let's see if a Van Aert fan can bait Van der Poel to do the same (or vice versa)
