Given the focus in the gif was Sagan elbowing Cavendish into the barriers, I don't think anyone noticed Demare's attempts to take out Bouhanni's front wheel. Bouhanni did, obviously, and was very vocal about it afterwards, but as most people have a negative opinion of Bouhanni, no-one cared, or thought he probably deserved it.

I've got into grief defending Bouhanni on here before.

What Demare does there is either a bold move into a gap that's just about big enough, or a dick move that nearly takes out Bouhanni, but either way it's a racing move and not a taking-someone-out-of-the-race move.
