Jokes right? Nibali is all too often pulling super-twattish moves in races. Hope he has heard of karma.
Pinot was nowhere near as much of a threat to his #1 as he was to NQ and VN's podium places. If they wont work to keep them, that's their choice, but I don't see how TD should be doing the pulling. You can't ask the Maglia Rosa to do "do the honours" of controlling the race and then attack when he has trouble on the road. Nibali expects respect and gives none.TD is better placed for arrogance than the others. He's the strongest rider in this race.

karma, oed, noun; the act of hanging onto a car during a bicycle race to gain time and/or positions on rivals.
Did I get that right.
Fuck off Nibs.

Everything I've read about Dumoulin yesterday does make him sound like he was being a bit arrogant, tbf. He's upset that they didn't help help him chase down Pinot. Pfft. That's his job. And apparently, according to the cycling podcast, he said the "knock them off the podium" thing to every reporter he spoke to after the race. Bit OTT. This was Nibali's response: "Has he ever heard of karma? He should do less talking because even he might miss the podium." In the context of everything seems fair.
