I think although he apologised that he had a point. He should have made the comment more general. I watched/listened to a lot of the coverage and several times riders from other teams that had been dropped got in the way and caused a disruption. If I'm busy I have Disccovery+ multi audio on my laptop with no commentery while I work to hear what is going on in the peleton, As the camera bikes moved from team to team you could hear some members of the teams yelling get out the f***** way and similar.
I think is the passion and a heat of the moment. Not mature enough... Very emotional.... I like the way he attacks...
Remco has a tendency to blame others even if it is his fault and then apologizing. He is a uncontrolled motormouth. Like manager like Rider. It makes for news though
Funny thing: If you consider Evenepoel a worldclass, almost-never-seen-before, kinda like the real Cannibal, cyclist, comparable to more contemporary athletes, what stands out is his whining, innuendos. Never hear Vingegaard or Pogacar complain. These guys lose and will still see the fun they have on the bike. Come to think of it, Merckx never complained, either.
