The blocked rider had to sit back in the saddle momentarily and stop his sprint run as Viviani bumped and blocked him. Note also that V only started to move dramatically to the left after the blocked rider caught half way up his bike. He knows while he had plenty of space directly in front.

Had Demare done something like that at the Tour, surely he wouldn't have got penalised But still, better to have an harsh but objective and impartial jury in my opinion...

Viviani switched right over to the other side dangerous move.

I've actually noticed that first time, but just thought it was the sort of gamesmanship accepted at this level. Turns out it's not acceptable, which is good to see.

Really enjoy these and looking forward to seeing more

Great to see the quality of the highlights has improved.

French always cheating ! It's a fact ! Look at tdf last year for the combative's price : Barguil won it... underserved, look at the tour of thomas de gent !!!

Just the right decision and good thing they're not being bias just because he's the Italian National Champ. Let's prevent riders from becoming like CRASHendish who can't stay on his bike upright and always causes crashes. I'm glad he's out of form now and not causing the peloton to crash.

If even Gaviria said that Viviani did nothing wrong then I would tend to trust his opinion

bom trabalho.

Your Italian pronunciation is pretty good :) !

good stage

Good shout. Viviani was dangerous, again!

Right decision imo, and this is coming from a big Viviani fan

Even cykling highligts are going for the 10+ minuttes videos now

I'd say his move was rather unlucky, he jumps off of ackermann's wheel, at the same time moschetti is trying to pass him, viviani clearly can't see him coming. But yes he does move to the left quite abrupt. But this should in no way be a DQ

He just jumped off from Ackermann's wheel at the wrong time, he can't see the other rider behind him and that was by no mean intentional. But you have to decide according to the rules so I think that the DQ was fait at the end of the day

Laughable disqualification. Sure it wasn't squeaky clean, but entirely without malice and an everyday occurrence in racing.

See exactly at 10:17. I can;t make out the rider but its clear the rider was almost half a bike length behind and gaining on viviani but viviani swerved and covered him which caused hot to ease off the pedals and take evasive action. Even poked his leg to counter balance the forces. You cannot cover a challenger like that and that's why, he was DQed

Bad commentary for not picking up on that straight away. Riders have been relegated for doing much less, but near the barrier. It should be consistent punishment for swerving in the middle of the road as well. You can't see a lot in that Brian Smith? And yet, you saw much more in Peter Sagan for swerving far less feeding an emotional outburst based on assumed intent. Yet clips show Mark colliding with Peter before his arm came up. Maybe you've updated your views? Until then: not forgiven.

Sagan was rising in the middle of the road before he was getting passed by demare and cavendish and then moved all the way to the right cutting of cavendish, who in turn didn't slam his brakes and therefor causing the crash. The media only focuses on that super slowmo with the elbow or not, therefor missing the entire picture.

(my sentence was a bit weird) But what my point was that the crash was not caused by sagans elbow, but by a strong sideways motion as the are passing him. Somewhat similar to viviani's sideways motion here but the rider being cut off had some room to move sideways and slow down to avoid a crash...
