Does he think as athletes, cyclist have a different attitude towards injuries. (Is it a team thing)?
For instance, he attempted to continue riding with a broken leg, Chris Froome completed a stage with a broken foot, and countless other examples, yet footballers will get stretchered from the pitch for much less serious / painful injuries (I'm sure there are other examples, but I'm not much of a sports fan, so that's the best I can think of).
