Rider radio. Are we to assume that the bits they allow to be broadcast are only the most anodyne and bland comments and hidden away behind that are some actual tactical suggestions/#insights?
We covered this a few weeks ago, but France TV have total access to the race radio of the teams who have signed up and they pick what to play out. Teams don't get approval, but some officials do. In return they get £5000 Sterling, definitely not euros (at Will Melling).
Presumably this is why we get coded messages along the lines of Jumbo's "The crocodile has escaped, repeat the crocodile has escaped, now we need to jump the tiger before the falcon eats all of the maltesers." etc.
I think the main #insight provided by the near-live race radio is it's not actually that interesting.

'Go hard to the end'; 'There might be attacks, try to get in the break'; 'Come on guys, you've got this' seem to be mostly sub-armchairDS level input.
