Women could cycle the Tour de France route, so why give them La Course?

This is actually factually wrong, where female athletes bring in more money than males they are better compensated (tennis would be a good example of this, where most tournaments pay equal prize money but guys like Federer could only dream of the endorsements Sharapova gets)

 

Yes sports has entertainment value, but when all is said and done we are in the professional era and that means it's business and nothing else. Bring in the revenue and you'll earn the big bucks.

 

And no that is not sexist it's just a fact!

Not saying it's sexist. Maybe you should look into the issue a bit more before trying to give me "facts".
