Sagan is not quite Sagan just yet. He had an issue on Stage 2 with Jakobsen, and again on Stage 3 with van Aert. He wasn’t “furious” by any means. He’s just very competitive and had the legs to win. What he is missing is his unique ability to weave his way through chaos and win the stage like only he could do. So, he’s frustrated. But, he is so very close. I think he now has enough races under his belt to win a stage in this year’s Tour like the Sagan of old. It would be great to have him back!

If the UCI applied there rules to all teams instead of hand picking who they apply penalties to, they would have relegated WVA. The rules clearly state that once you start your sprint you should no deviate from your line and endanger another rider. Blind Freddy could see WVA did both, front on you could see he deviated nearly 5m from when he started the sprint and nearly put Sagan into the barrier. While the UCI pick and choose who they want to apply rules to, it is only a matter of time before there is another incident like Jakobsen and Groenewegen.

I think Laporte assumed that Morkov was going to move to barriers, so he decided to move left. But since Morkov moved to left, Laporte and Van Aert had to pass him from different sides, which led Van Aert lose Laporte's wheel. Laporte attacked to lead out Van Aert again, but as Van Aert had already started his sprint the moment he lost Laporte's wheel, so they could not meet again.

@SorenCicchini

I think so, too, and Morkov looking over his right shoulder with 300 m to go reinforced his idea that going left was the correct move at that time to get a half second jump on his sprint with his man on his wheel and no other leadout train in sight. It's hard to fault him for this.

Maybe he said: "tomorrow is rest day, let us make a little party' :-)

I think you really do Sagan a disservice by saying that he divebombed that final corner. It looked to me that he simply chose the correct line and made everyone else look like amateurs. He didn't exit the corner hard up against the barriers and was pedalling almost immediately after the apex. Do you think that he impeded anyone?

Looked pretty smooth to me 👌

"I'm not the Cycling Jomboy" Brilliant!

2020 Stage 11 TdF. Sagan relegated for pinching Wout in a very similar finish. I think that's what Sagan is remembering.

Sagan wasn't relegated for closing the door, he headbutted Wva in full sprint and was relegated for excessive physical contact. Complete different scenario compared to this sprint.

getting to be an element of 'working the umps' in these remonstrations. They have to know if they don't relegate they will be accused of being partial. 100% guarantee that without Peter's pointing absolutely no one would be talking about this.

That's just asinine, this was probably one of the largest line deviations in a mass sprint this year. I think the correct assessment is that people are 100% willing to pretend like it's not a big deal because it was Wout who did the chopping. If you want to see someone "working the umps", watch Cavendish throwing a shit-fit because Richeze moved 1m to the right in Tour of Oman Stage 6.

Did you see the same sprint the rest of us did? van Aert almost drove Sagan into the barriers. An honest fan is going to mention it because it’s so blatantly obvious.

It was so funny how the nbc guys thought Sagan was pointing at Grounewegen to congratulate him for winning the sprint

That’s what I think and I wasn’t listening to them

Do you not think the slight wave on the barriers made the closing of the gap by WVA slightly exaggerated, looking at the helicopter shot the barriers appear to be not totally straight, just a thought

Ya, it's like there are a couple places where the barriers bend in a few feet. Marginal at best. Good eye.

I thought at first that he was angry at Grunewegen and was like - "Oh, shit, here we go again..."

I think that finger was for Groenewegen, like "how good are you"

Loved that Jomboy-Refernece!

If you watch the sprint from the front, just looks like a bunch of guys going for it. Yes WVA went to the side but was not an intentional move, and was in the heat of the sprint, hard to keep it straight…The barrier deviation at the same time encroaching on Sagan doesn’t help either. But great exhilarating sprint finish. And yeah Philipsen came from way back! Another metre and maybe his.

Hard to keep it straight? Do you think this is amateur hour? These guys do this all year long at the highest levels. There are rules that make van Aert’s move illegal specifically because it’s one way to cheat. van Aert should’ve been relegated, but the race directors decide which rules they want to apply and to whom.
