Can you say Deviation ??
Well done UAE 🎉
Clever move to take him wide 👍🏼
brooooo…..deviated clearly
lol lost a lot of respect for Rafal with that deviation, stole the win from Kwiato
Block.kwiato😂😂😂
The deviation is obvious, but I don't think it was intentional. The finish was not straight, really tought and Majka was on his last legs and breath. I don't think he could plan it. If he was thinking clearly, he would go for shorter line to the left. Kwiato could not go to the left, because he overlaps his wheel on the right side of Majka. Mohoric was lucky here. Normally it would be 1. Kwiato, 2. Majka 3. Mohoric P.S. Yes, I am from Poland xD
Super kolarstwo
Gratulacje 🥇dla Rafała piękny finisz i czekam na kolejne zwycięstwa UAE Team Emirates✌
People need to stop crying about every little deviation in a sprint. It was every day this conversation at the tour (Stage 3 was a little dubious there, but everything else was just so normal. Even in stage 3 I wouldn't dq JP).
In this particular case, there is a small deviation but he never blocks Kwiato, he always leaves the door open for him to pass him, and the movement is never abrupt, it's always just a small deviation which is legal to do if you're in front and if you don't block the rider or make him brake sudenly to avoid disaster. This isn't athletics, there are no lines on the floor that you absolutely need to follow. There's absolutely nothing wrong in this move, and Kwiato could 100% pass him if he had the legs to do it. Of course Majka made it a little harder, but he's also not suposed to make it easy to beat him
Good transmission…keep attention for next stages of TdP this year, pls
Legal move. It's OK to make another rider take a longer route, just as long as you don't cut him off.
I don't think Majka's move was deliberate, but he deserved a penalty for that.
the deviation is legal, because kwia wasnt endangered, which is the key aspect
Congratulations to UAE team🎉
After we saw how Jasper Philipsen behaved in the TdF without sanctions or relegation, this is nothing.
