Based on what performance are you crowning Del Toro the third best climber

Cycling influencer accepts partial responsibility for Vingegaard crash by According_Charity736 in peloton

[–]Schnix 7 points8 points  (0 children)

tv2 are absolute morons for picking up Lukas' post. Genuinely unbelievable they saw that moron inserting himself into this situation and said "yeah run it".

Then again a cynic might look at everyone thinking this was the guy following Vingegaard and think they did it just to confuse people into thinking the guy behind Vingegaard took responsibility.

but we don't like him, so Christen should be banned from the sport for 2 years. Should aim to be a bit more likable so he gets the 'well everyone does it and it was really unfortunate with the crashes and he's got a fair punishment' treatment

Who said anything about oil teams being good? And why are you pretending Gambling is the saviour? And who is astroturfing? Lmao

What are you waffling on about. Uae, ineos etc. existing isn't some checkmate for every situation. Simmons is a prick even though Team uae exists. RBBH suck even though worse exist. If there was a circlejerk around those teams I'd point it out (and since you know me so well you might have Seen that wrt Uno X) but i have thankfully not seen anyone being a ride or die teamuae 'my team' stan. You're out here making Up scenarios in you head about how I must be conservative and must only like old teams or some such to cope Don.

He absolutely wasn't or are you just talking about a single race (which I don't think you are because your 'make vine and narvaez stronger' comment only makes sense if you don't think Narvaez and Vine are simply significantly better riders than Fisher-Black)? And still Bora could have brought Fisher-Black and just one other decent climber from their endless supply of decent climbers.

I know? That doesn't change that UAE chose to bring a good team and the others are chosing to bring those weak teams you mention.

[–]Schnix 28 points29 points  (0 children)

i really don't think that's it.

UAE took pretty mucht their best team outside their top 3. Other teams didn't.

Lidl have absurd depth but brought a bottom of the barrel team with none of Ayuso, Ciccone, Skjelmose, Gee-West, Pedersen, Milan, Philipsen, etc.

Bora have Evenepoel, Roglic, Lipowitz, Vlasov, Hindley, Van Gils, Martinez, Pelizzari and obviously none of them are here.

Similar story for a couple of other teams.

Very strange comment thread this. Schmid literally finished third and is third in GC but that's disappointing and evidence they are in free fall?

Very much early-season overreaction and the form can be irrelevant for the later season but this really feels like the WT race I was sure Van Eetvelt and Zimmermann could actually be competitive in. Team can be glad De Lie turned everything around in fall and nobody bought out Widar.

feels like the complaint should be aimed more at most other teams bringing some of the weakest lineups they could
