  • You say that but the road was going left at that point, he was essentially swerving to the right blocking cav off

  • I'd want to watch it again, but it looked like a swerve from Deg while Cav was trying to get around, which he quickly corrected, which either resulted in Cav going in further than he was expecting on the shoulder, or Cav just didn't care and went for the bump to remind him what's what.

  • Just read that Kittel says it was Veelers, not Degenkolb

  • That was a disgrace.

  • Deutscher Doppelsieg.

  • It looks like Cav was expecting him to swerve more, and then when Veelers straightened Cav ended up leaning over a lot more than intended?

  • Cav lost his own leadout and jumped on the wrong wheel, Degenkolb looks over his shoulder, drifts a bit out right, Cav's already out of the running, gets frustrated and takes him out. Bullshit behaviour.

  • Got to say that is exactly what it looked like to me

  • Armchair expert time.

    Yeah, I think that could be the case as well, but it's impossible to tell. We'll have to wait for the story to come out, I guess.

    Pfft. Tell us what you really think, Andy.

  • oof doesn't look good in super slow mo!

  • To be fair to Cav, it looked like Veelers decided to drift him slightly to the right with the better line on the left so you can see the frustration.

  • Twitter's probably gone into meltdown already.

  • It's shoulder charge into him. Whether or not it's acceptable, whether or not it's a 'chaotic environment' and standard practice for positioning, Cav leans in an bumps him off.

    The armchair expert watches the front-o slowmo however, and sees him knock over a competitor

  • I think Tom just tried to put out some veelers towards Cav and Cav didn't appreciate it.

  • Twitter's probably gone into meltdown already.

    At last people have something important to discuss again!!!1!!1

  • armchair expert time.

    24/7

  • Sven Nys: "What Cavendish does is outrageous. Rams Veelers out of frustration because he is too short"

  • I wonder what decision they will come to regarding this. Especially when they see the slow motion replays.
    You'd hope they don't gage reaction from twitter before coming to one

  • Sven Nys: "What Cavendish does is outrageous. Rams Veelers out of frustration because he is too short"

    Who the fuck is Sven Nys? Some armchair expert?

  • if you don't have anything Nys to say...

  • Sven Nys: "What Cavendish does is outrageous. Rams Veelers out of frustration because he is too short"

    I thought you'd logged off?
