It’s so overt though. I can’t see anything it would be in reaction to either. He leans into empty space between them on the right hand side. Then his lead out comes across and in front of Stewart right to left and there’s a little bit as Bouhanni fights to keep the wheel. Then as Stewart is about to come up the left side with plenty of space Bouhanni swerves right into him to the point of stopping pedalling, because of what? Frustration that his own lead out man is slower than Viviani? I get it’s a properly charged environment but he damages his own chance of winning in order to put Stewart into the barriers.

Nobody was coming round Viviani at that point and I think maybe Bouhanni reacted out of frustration that Jake Stewart was better placed than him in the battle for second.
Edit: this is a better video. Does Stewart lean on Bouhanni a bit at the very start? In which case, it's a bit more understandable.

I don't think he is a C but he does seem prone to hotheadedness. Why can't he save that sort of thing for Quinn Simmons or Moscon?
