Bizarre, but definitely no other choice.

JA can go thank the commissioner's for saving him from losing more time of the final climb ????????

Jeez, how do one decide @ what km point of today's route is the finish line and still keep in fair to everyone  :mellow: 

 

Cancel the stage entirely and start again tomorrow?

Think from here, JA will be lucky if he can finish on the podium. He will likely have to settle for top 5 or Top 10.

 

Still a very gutsy ride this whole Tour by him.

 

Sporsors will be chuffed as cheese

There is no protocol from the UCI for this, I think...

 

Best to sit down with the teams and discuss. Majority decision? This will likely then set a precedent for future interruptions of stages.

 

Fact that there is no official timings taken on the top of the HC climb complicates things.

Nah each team would just want a decision thay favours them.. best for the official rule makers and breakers to make the decision

 

And for some fun and games

 

Brailsford ITV interview cut short after this question:

 

“How does it feel that it was a natural disaster that made you win the Tour de France”

 

He wasn’t happy with that beauty! [emoji23]

That’s sad that the journalists have to resort to that type of questioning
