Nibali was pushing the group to attack. Afterward he had said in an interview something about it being a race and he shouldn't have to wait. That moved him to the bottom of my list of best cyclists.
Arnoud Huberts well, they waited at the start of the climb. They didn't know what to do. Eventually they started riding and I remember that Dumoulin climbed that mountain faster than anybody else
nah its not a fault of movistar, it's the Bahrain started to put up the pace so Quintana the leader just followed wheels till the summit, he didn't attack. He just must not let Nibali and other gc guys go.
I enjoy cycling but I do not understand rules of actual cycling so forgive me for this questions. What did he do that was wrong? How was Dumoulin a gentleman?
Joseph Edstrøm it’s not so much the actual UCI rules but rather the unwritten rules not to attack the GC leader when they crash or have a mechanical. In this case it was just a main GC contender looking after another. Which was not required but it’s a gentleman thing to do and make this sport wonderful to watch. Like others have said Quintana did not want to press on but Merida put on the pressure and he has to follow to not loose time to other GC contenders.
Missing bigger controversies : 1) Sagan thrown out of the 2017 Tour de France 2) Nibali's crash on the Alpe d'Huez 3) Stage 19 shortened in the Tour de France 2019 and the classification changed
@@denkend8373 The only option ? What about restarting the race ? It has already be seen, even in 2019 in Dwars doors Vlaaderen. And it has been seen at even more crucial moments of a race, like in Roubaix 2006 when a train stopped the chasing group. The controversy also comes from the applications of the rules, which are very clear for cases like this, and nothing allows the commissaires to set a finishline somewhere on the course after the riders have passed it.
@ peter- Whatever, chief. Cavendish crashed out many a competitor back when he was able finish races with the bunch and was responsible for knocking guys out of races, not because of dq's, but bc they were injured so badly they were unable to continue. Him getting taken out by Sagan was karma, plain and simple.
People hanging their coats over the boarding? What are they thinking? It is so strange that even Benoot gets it fully stuck on his bike, after it crashes Sagan initially.
Do you think Sagan could have won if he hadn't fallen? Personally I think so, because he was at his highest level that year, look at the speed at which he accelerated without showing any sign of pain... And if he has been a little luckier on the Parix Roubaix I think he could have won the 2 monuments
But he was bringing Van Avermaet in his wheel. Van Avermaet was in the shape of his life in 2017, and he has the bad habit of beating Sagan in the sprints (a bit like Kwiatkowski).
Svit Kramar Ros Basically when Movistar are the victims the rest waits for them (unless there already was a proper attack on the way). And when their opponents are down , they just move to take advantage. Sad tactics.

New to the cycling world here, just a question, but why do fans have such little respect for the riders? Like getting supper close running next to them and so on... just trying to understand
The coat had nothing to do with Sagan crashing. That got picked up by the guy behind; probably because a spectator was shocked about the crash and dropped it.
I think 4 seconds. But there is another reason that doesnt involve cheating. It pertains to the safety of the other riders. They want to make sure the bottle is in the hands firmly. A dropped full water bottle can and has caused riders that ran over it to crash. So the rider getting the bottle has to make sure he has a firm grip before the guy giving him the bottle can let go.
It is easier to ride on the side of the road because it is relatively flat, riding on the road with all those bumps is is not efficient, pleasant or otherwise. It's just faster, of course it comes with the risk of crashing because of the fences or idiots in the crowd.
That's the wrong question. The right one would be why are spectators hanging their coats on the inside of the barriers? It's not like they don't know riders pass close to the side of the road... Cycling has the worst fans in sports.
Drifting So basicly the best rider stay at the back of the group so they can save energy, the front rider fought with higher wind resistance than rider at the back
@@enricotimothy7759 drifting but no. The best spot 2 save energy is not at the back of peleton Even when there are 5 cyclist the best is 4th place then 3rd then last cyclist then 2nd hardest job has the 1st one
Despite movistar not waiting for Dumoulin when he was down...he still went on to win the Giro that year. Class act.
And quintana had just Bad bike handling skills
Hahahahahaha!! Great!
Nibali was pushing the group to attack. Afterward he had said in an interview something about it being a race and he shouldn't have to wait. That moved him to the bottom of my list of best cyclists.
@Micro Soft Ladies on the side of the road with signs animate the race too. Doesn't mean they deserve praise.
Agreed. Classy and deserved the win that year.
Watching this with headphones was the worst experience of my life
True
Let’s see how it goes for me
Ok yeah, you’re right
You must have had a challenging life so far then
Stephen Gialamas same here my right ear enjoyed this video
Dumoulin being a gentleman, but not getting the favour returned by the Movistars. Worst team ever.
Arnoud Huberts well, they waited at the start of the climb. They didn't know what to do. Eventually they started riding and I remember that Dumoulin climbed that mountain faster than anybody else
nah its not a fault of movistar, it's the Bahrain started to put up the pace so Quintana the leader just followed wheels till the summit, he didn't attack. He just must not let Nibali and other gc guys go.
They didnt ask for the favor
I enjoy cycling but I do not understand rules of actual cycling so forgive me for this questions. What did he do that was wrong? How was Dumoulin a gentleman?

Most controversial audio experience watching this video
Was wondering what all the fuss was about... until I put my headphones on LOL
@@beezeebee6637 I still don't understand what everyone's talking about.
"He's evacuated himself."
I will never be able to look at this verb the same again.
What does it mean?
@@angelamerkel3373 It literally means he shat himself. The poor guy must have been so embarrassed.

I will never forgive Tour de France for throwing out Sagan in 2017 🤬🥶🤬
Rune you won’t forgive the Tour de France for kicking sagan out for knocking Cavendish off his bike grow up they made the right call

Dumoulin is one of the most sweet and intelligent riders of the peloton. Respect for his conscious choices!
He is a wining man
9:23 - massive sticky bottle there.
He even threw the bottle away bcs he had 2 on his bike
Well that was just 4sec so its ok
@@s1mpleniko488 its allowed 4 seconds to hold it. it seem the car helps him with speed.
Just a handful of seconds...
Dumoulin lost the pink jersey but gained brown shorts
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
7:12 goodbye headphones
"Can I have my coat back?"
: )
Great that you’ve included the commentators. Makes it much more exciting!
Big respect - Tom Du (2:44).
Thanks for uploading
He Evacuated himself .... 😄
The audio in this video is like my R - L power balance
my left ear really enjoyed that talking and my right ear did like the music
The Star Wars music at 6:17 was just too much 😅 until I saw the Covid-ready fans at 6:24 😅🤷🚴🤣
great video , but watching this with headphones xD What did the maker do too the audio
People hanging their coats over the boarding? What are they thinking? It is so strange that even Benoot gets it fully stuck on his bike, after it crashes Sagan initially.
But why are u even racing in the grind and not on the cobbles?? There were so many people there back in 2017 on the Oude Kwaremont.
You meant Naesen?
Why wouldn't you? There's the whole road to race on.
@@garymitchell5899 Because they don't want to lose? Are you for real?
my left ear enjoyed this immensly
Some epic moments. Thanks for uploading :-)
I hope the guy who pushed dumoulin to restart washed his hands.💩 it looked a bit of a rush job.😂
Respect for these guys. Cobbles don't even do well for me over my car suspension, can't imagine what it does to their sacs....
Any other sport that basically allows spectators to physically interact with the play space?
3:32 there is a technician who understands dramatics and entertainment... Nothing gets the crowds roaring like a nice pile up !!!
Another level of stereo..
3:10 Didn't that commentator use to ride for the Cervelo Test Team?
Yes
Heard it for the first time
Yes. He is Daniel Llyod
He even won the tour a Estremadura or something
You can see him at GCN
Do you think Sagan could have won if he hadn't fallen? Personally I think so, because he was at his highest level that year, look at the speed at which he accelerated without showing any sign of pain... And if he has been a little luckier on the Parix Roubaix I think he could have won the 2 monuments
It would have been a very epic battle between GVA, Sagan and Gilbert. Personally i think GVA would have won because hè was outstanding that year
But he was bringing Van Avermaet in his wheel. Van Avermaet was in the shape of his life in 2017, and he has the bad habit of beating Sagan in the sprints (a bit like Kwiatkowski).
I think they'd dallied too much within that group, and already allowed Gilbert to build an insurmountable lead. But you never know......!
Yes I think so, Sagan is still strong, but in 2017 was monster.
Tbh part of me blames Sagan for that incident, he was far too close to the barriers.
Nice video
Movistar setting high tempo at vuelto while Roglič was down- you can put in the next video
Svit Kramar Ros
Basically when Movistar are the victims the rest waits for them (unless there already was a proper attack on the way). And when their opponents are down , they just move to take advantage. Sad tactics.
Best of alexander kirstoff next
Another most controversial moment added in Tour de France 2021 1st stage.
I would not want to be the guy giving Dumoulin a push by the saddle...
A true visionary made the sound design for this video
2:55 the donkey was traumatized
So the music at the end is the reason there is no sound on the right ear for the whole video.. nice editing!
Mono sound from one speaker... lovely...
Could someone please explain the controversy regarding Roglic´ mechanical and Vivianis blocking?

My left ear enjoyed this
1:52 he got a rear wheel and then... Magic !
"We just crashed, lets block the road for all the other competitors by not moving out of the way in any shape or form!"
My left ear really enjoyed this video :)
I swear Movistar’s team management is the least organized and most shameless in cycling.
Wrong Movistar is one of best teams
4:30 "He's gonna do a bike change" looks like a bike dump to me :)
Ohhh noooo dooodooooo
0:57 those 2 probably went home and repeated that position again.
"may i have my coat back please?" 🙄🙄
ya gotta admit those barriers do make great coat racks.
Left headphone... Right Headphone...
6:26 How all fans will dress from now on.
Is that a Wuhan flu reference?!! cos it was GOLD!! 😆
seal1mas you are joking right?
Maybe the editor thinks that putting the sounds in one side makes the video cool. It just made it worse.
Dumoulin wait for Quintana, Quintana doesn’t wait for Dumoulin. Quintana is the shame of that Giro.
@der Führer Saw any Movistars pushing the tempo up front that I missed?
What’s going on at 7.00??
But if we are going to talk about the MOST EPIC, to me its the vuelta 2017. The farewell attack till the end of the legend, specially the angliru.
1:51 how does the rear wheel come off.
0:57 That must be incredibly disappointing, putting in all that effort and then having that happen!
chill with the stereo my guy
Fix the sound. wth
when you gotta go you gotta go 😂
My left ear has been enlightened
The coat had nothing to do with Sagan crashing. That got picked up by the guy behind; probably because a spectator was shocked about the crash and dropped it.
How long can the car pull the rider along pretending to grab the bottle before it's considered cheating?
I know little about cycling but even I noticed that bogus bottle exchange.
I read it in some vids it says 8 seconds and it is not cheating because you can hold on to that for 8 sec
I think 4 seconds. But there is another reason that doesnt involve cheating. It pertains to the safety of the other riders. They want to make sure the bottle is in the hands firmly. A dropped full water bottle can and has caused riders that ran over it to crash. So the rider getting the bottle has to make sure he has a firm grip before the guy giving him the bottle can let go.
Sagan might have had that win all that work and time gone just like that brutal
I really don't understand the Viviani DQ. He had the racing line.
an explanation could have been helpful
You should have had an epilogue for each of these it wasn't clear what transpired after
All doped!!!
I didn't understand the Dumoulin incident... Someone please explain
Dumoulin waited for Quintana when He had a Crash but Quintana didn't wait for tom when it was His Turn with issues
Dumoulin waited for Quintana when He had a Crash but Quintana didn't wait for tom when it was His Turn with having issues
Everyone is complaining about the audio... I thought it was all right.
use headphones
yTube y sooooo many ads?!?!?!
what means the molecular geometry 16:57? Thanks
Nelson Sarmiento is the representation of lactic acid, one of the cyclist’s worst enemies
Most Controversial sound track moments.
Swear the support car drivers are some of the shittiest drivers around bikes ever. The local taxi companies take more care.
Tender roadie spooning at 1:41
I can't think of any other sporting event where they wait for you if something goes wrong - it doesn't happen in athletics.
I think that parking the van in a curve that the cyclists have to take wide (so wide that the guy in your team fell) makes little sense... really
Even falling looks cool
RIP headphone users
first crash, why were the so close to the crowd,
It is easier to ride on the side of the road because it is relatively flat, riding on the road with all those bumps is is not efficient, pleasant or otherwise. It's just faster, of course it comes with the risk of crashing because of the fences or idiots in the crowd.

Sad for the dogs!
Why are you panning it to only one side??????
1:52 No foul play here, he got hung up on a sponsored sign... oh wait, what else is new?
It was a jacket
That show no one is indestructible
I dont really get why one should not Attack a fallen gc contender. Falling or having a mechanical issue is part of the game, I guess
Fix the sound
Who let an ape into the audio department?
The editor of this video should take some more editing lessons
6:25 coronavirus race
Really cool cyclist! I am impressed today.
this is the most controversial video of controversial video.
I don't understand why people go so mad for TDF...
Dumoulan was a fool for waiting.
headphones watching this was so bad
no music next time
Doumillon drops a deucemillon

Why do they always want to drive in groups?
Drifting
So basicly the best rider stay at the back of the group so they can save energy, the front rider fought with higher wind resistance than rider at the back
@@enricotimothy7759 drafting. But yes, youre totally right
@@enricotimothy7759 drifting but no. The best spot 2 save energy is not at the back of peleton
