  The only safe position in cycling is out in front, dead last, or in my case on a couch watching on Peacock T.V.

  @anonymouscyclist - thanks mate. It's an uphill battle bringing the r/pelotonmemes sense of fun and fandom to this site's comments section.

  My knowledge of boxing is limited, and likely 20 years out of date. Suffice to say, assuming there's no fraud (not sure that's a good assumption), then the boxers tend to be paid what they're worth. A famous fighter goes up against an unknown, the famous fighter makes much more out of the fight, as he's the reason the fight makes most of the money it made. Honestly, the various states (American meaning or worldwide meaning of the term) making rules about the rules and legality of professional martial arts means there is an oligopoly in them, so the fighters will get paid less and the organizations get paid more. Big government benefits oligopolies and monopolies, regardless of what anyone might want.

  I would simply like to point out that you are generally right, but all of what you brought up are aspects of supply and demand. They can be quite complicated, but they are verified by the prices (and quantities) found in the market.

  in other words, he only races for glory, but not for the love of the sports.

  Also, Michael Matthews. What is it with him and this race? He's never placed worse than 9th, I think, and did terribly today, by his own standards, meaning he finished outside the top 5 for only the 2nd time, at 6th. How does he do this, at this race, when he is so invisible at so many other races? I find this totally fascinating. Good for him!

  The past few years, I've been on the ground in Quebec, but I missed it this year. Watching on TV for the new circuit was interesting. Congratulations to Evenepoel on his win, the right strategy and the legs to do it, clinical and excellent. Really superbly done - and he didn't get pissed off along the way, he just took the race apart at just the right time! This is going to be a hell of a world championship. Bummer about Ayuso's crash, I didn't see what happened in detail, but I hope he's ok.

  It looked like a camera bike was close in front of Dunbar at one stage too. In general, they have tended to stay too close to riders before .oving off.

  @wrsty Me too! @Mistermaumau I think you’re taking wrsty’s comment too seriously. It was made completely in jest, just standard fan banter hoping one of the original underdogs (pre-Pogi leaving the Vuelta) pulls it off. It’s not that deep, wrsty is just passionately cheering on Mas. No need to overanalyse it, let him or her have his fun.

  The camera motorbike was rdiculously close in front of him all the time of his attack and as soon as Dunbar caught up it pulled away. Why?
