  • I just caught up on yesterday's highlights and I have some questions...

    These spectators holding up wheels, they aren't just random punters are they? They are from the various teams, right?

    Why was everyone saying Froome would do badly on the cobbles? He's done Paris Roubaix before. He crashed last year, but was that even his fault?

    Also, when Pino got a puncture, Ligget said something like "well that's the end of his tour then". Wut? He was only a minute or two off the back of the peleton by the time he got a wheel?

    He crashed and abandoned before the cobbles last year. He abandoned then rather than trying to go any further possibly because he didn't fancy trying the cobbles with a broken hand. That didn't mean he could not handle cobbles when fit.

    I have to confess that today's media coverage in the mainstream media was embarrassing. Froome Froome Froome Sky Froome.
