It was one of the most confusing situations of the week. At the
Giro d'Italia,
Tadej Pogacar was given purple shorts towards stage 3 by the race organizers but the UCI was quick to forbid them, with a threat of a disqualification reported if that was to be broken. Only three days later, the decision was already reverted.
It is unknown why there was such a quick call for action within the governing body after the third stage of the Giro, where Pogacar rode the pink jersey and grenade-colour shorts as provided for the Giro organizers. This Wednesday evening GCN reports that the UCI and kit supplier Castelli were in communications and it is understood that the equipment choice is already cleared.
