Good chance that's because of the thousands of insanely drunk idiots.

I really don't believe they were waiting for Nibali.

What a stage

Nibali fell, that must have been thanks to some idiot...

What?

RIP Kruijswijk

Some moron pushed Froome

Haha, GPS

Yep, excellent move. Although now turn 7 through 4 are for a big part Dutch

You mean the great Dutch successes there of the last 29 years?

What an unbelievable Froomian ride from Kruijswijk. So far, at least.

Not really but now that every sprinter is gone, it's definitely decided

Just crossposting the horrible news of Denis Ten's death..

Gaviria DNF, Sagan is being thrown presents everywhere today

I've heard about people getting stabbed for trying to prevent someone from stealing their bike...not an elite athlete, but that's just because a vast majority of people is not an elite athlete. Anyway, I'm shocked..

To be fair, I guess those senseless things happen everywhere...it's not like that would be impossible in Stockholm, or Graz or something...but this is horrible

Zabel, abandon (after being 3 seconds out of the time limit yesterday). Greipel, abandon. Gallopin, abandon. Groenewegen, abandon. Sagan is being thrown the green jersey again with all these DNF's

Yep, with Roglic and Kruijswijk they've got more or less two equal riders (with Roglic being a specialist in one week races, and Kruijswijk having already almost won a 3-week race), so it makes sense to try something like this. If it doesn't work out, there's always Roglic as back-up

So he will go two turns after Kruijswijk, Gesink and child soldier Tolhoek attacked

Because for whatever reason, that's where half the Dutch population and their mother come together

Well, African athletes do sometimes show up at these events (for example one from Uganda did indeed show up and compete).

Now we wait and see if Enzo Kuworge can win a Dutch medal

I am gonna be so ashamed of my country today It's time for Alpe d'Huez, AKA 'The Dutch Mountain'. That's always completely packed with half the Dutch population, especially in 'The Dutch Turn', turn 7. The finish is on the Alpe today, so that's gonna make it even worse Some illustration, this video was made 2-3 days ago in turn 7, where Dutch 'fans' (mostly just drunk people) have been camping for almost a week already.

By the way, since I'm kind of a noob on reading schedules, the main question for me is: what's the average time on which the day of sports starts and ends?

It probably favours the American viewers who are not general sports fans, but only want to see a few medals being decided. If you're a fan of Olympics/general sports, no matter the timezone it just sucks when there's hours and hours without finals, and then a boatload of finals crammed in 2-3 hours so you can't see them all, even though there would have been plenty of time to schedule it in such a way that you could actually see them all. Like in Pyeongchang: almost every day there was a time when for several hours almost nothing happened, and then all of a sudden 4-5 finals happened in the same moment, so even with a lot of available time it was impossible to watch everything live.
