    That’s a bit crazy: surely you’ve got at least one person who can do the opening height, get 2 points & then sit down.

    Great 200m, De Grasse almost gets Bednarek at 19.88. Armin Sinčević NR in the shot. But NM in the stupid throw off, so only third.

    Bit of a shame to see no crowds in Doha: always a big meet for the East African fans. Don’t know what the Croatian for “What a bloody waste of time!” Is but suspect that Perković just said it there. 1 NM & two duff throws for the last three. Is it too early to put this stupid stunt in the shredder or do we have to put up with it all year?

    Straight fight Yates v Bernal now. Caruso the loser. Bernal holding at about 20 secs. Yates win, Bernal minor last km crack, Caruso recovers. Good day for Almeida.
  5. Grassmarket
    Carthy up to the Caruso group, Lancashire derby moves to Act II. Bernal rejoins Caruso chase group, so it’s all down to Yates.
  6. Grassmarket
    Almeida first attack for stage win & top 5 place. Yates & Caruso join Almeida.... Bernal not following, Ineos working. Yates solo!

    42k to go, climb, descent & last climb to come. Breakaway has only 1’20, so will be a GC battle. KoM Bouchard is out the back, so Bernal has a chance to win that as well.

    Just too easy these days. There was once a Romanian rugby player who defected here in Edinburgh & it involved a crowd of Scots fans surrounding him in a bar & hiding him in an old medieval passageway entered through a hidden door. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-latin-america-57266959

    Well done lads. After a horrible year for the sport, it’s heroic to keep getting results against heartland teams.

    That’s probably why they changed it. For Olympico-political reasons, sports like to have multi-continental representation, so now that S America are safely in, they want to get Oceania as well.

    One of the few things that unite the Spanish left & right is that Catalan nationalism must be opposed. Even if it means jailing them.

    Martin completes the GT Triple. Looks like the Greater Manchester showdown has been won by Bury over Preston.
  13. Grassmarket
    Yates, Bernal & Almeida now going after Martin. Yates has time & places to gain. Yates gaps Bernal!
  14. Grassmarket
    Dan Martin versus the Rest of the World with 10k to go.

    Only seven teams this weekend - COVID positives have ruled out . They’ll be the relegated team so everyone else can relax. https://european-athletics.com/news/ukraine-withdraw-from-the-european-athletics-team-championships-super-league

    50k to go, main business of the day begins. Breakaway had 3 mins, so likely a GC day.

    Just one more thing we missed on Monday. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/othersports/article-9620099/Colombian-cyclist-Egan-Bernal-chased-climb-two-spectators-revving-CHAINSAWS.html

    I see the same thing so I guess it’s local. Here in Blighty, we start with the 400m Hurdles at 17:00 Incidentally, here is the official list of broadcasters for the year. https://worldathletics.org/competitions/diamond-league/news/how-to-follow-2021

    For sure it is complicated, but since Catalonia is the wealthiest part of Spain any attempt by Catalonia to withdraw its money from the general Spanish Treasury will be seen as “right wing” by Spanish leftists. Exact same thing with Slovenia & the Baltic Republics thirty years ago.

    Had my second Astra-Zeneca today. Vaccine centre was pretty busy with people in their 20s now getting their first.

    Just showing that in spite of all the hype, the laws of gravity have not been abolished. It’s very difficult for a cyclist born in a flat country to learn to ride in the Alps.
  22. Grassmarket
    One thing is clear: the time gap to the winner rule must be enforced to the second! Even if it means there’s only thirty riders left in the whole race. Fiat justitia ruat caelum!

    Even with masks, Italian cameramen can always find the best-looking women in the crowd.
  24. Grassmarket
    Bernal & Carthy attacking! Gah!
  25. Grassmarket
    Vlasov - we saw him struggling with his jacket last week - seemingly managed to get it into his spokes today. Off the back again, fighting to get back. Simon Yates in trouble now.
