  • He didn't eat enough yesterday it seems. He only lost a minute so isn't out of it yet, assuming he has the form and it was actually a refuelling aberration yesterday.

  • I can't get my head around pro riders having refuelling issues, maybe I'm totally naive but in my mind it just shouldn't happen at that level. I get it if he was sick and couldn't get food down, but just simply not eating enough seems way too basic a fail to me within a pro team, even more so Ineos. Is that harsh? Maybe way more to it than I know...

  • I’ve forgotten to eat lunch while busy at work, I expect it’s not that hard to forget to have a gel or two while you’re racing.

    What I find impressive is that with a hunger flat, they only lose a minute. I get a hunger flat, I need to get the train.

  • Easy enough to forget to eat in a chipper RR which are short enough to carry everything you need in your back pocket. On a roasting 5hr stage which requires dropping back to the car for feeding it's easy to do.
