After watching Pauline Ferrand-Prevot yesterday I really think that on a regular bike she would be much faster. She just cannot into TT bikes...11:12

> Imagine how many tight-lipped competent and available personnel would be required to descend on 10 teams simultaneously? You would need 10 persons only. Taking blood sample is not rocket science and any nurse or doctor can do that. Also nobody is talking about taking samples from whole teams but only from TOP10 riders fighting for GC.23-07-2026 15:24

"(...) and why not the rest of the top ten?" Unfortunately in the rest of TOP 10 is a french rider which is somehow invisible for ITA.23-07-2026 09:42

The only reason I can imagine is that UCI had some suspicions regarding micro-dosing so the only way would be to make a night test. However, they could wake up both riders at same time (use two teams of doctors) and/or they could test TOP5 of current classification. Unless someone is trying to help Seixas...19-07-2026 15:06

“We’ve got a plan for that” Yeah.. And I've got a plan for Vingegaard to win White Jersey! Please contact me regarding the Elixir of Youth if you want to go for it!17-07-2026 18:01

Why sad? This is a sport, not a drama movie. And your prediction is about 2x too small ;-) I have always been annoyed by “unwritten rules” like “do not attack in the feed zone” and others - where riders who rely on those unwritten rules complain -> true champions win. There is only one rule again: whoever crosses the finish line first wins!16-07-2026 14:25

“There are also unwritten rules that should be respected” - it is a total BS. There is only one rule in cycling - whoever crosses the finish line first -> wins. (or who has lower cumulative time, most points - depending on type of race/tour)16-07-2026 10:46

> Sure, those type of barriers can pose a risk, but the riders were nowhere near the barriers when the crash occurred. No. It actually started from the (Bahrain Victourius? - on the very left in TV transmission - guy in green) rider who was pushed to the barriers and when you go frame by frame his rear wheel probably slipped on a barrier leg.09-05-2026 13:07
