What do you think was the most contentious moment of 2019?
Global Cycling Network word champs dq
#1 Movistar riding hard at the Vuelta Espana when race leader Roglic and Company hit the deck
#2 the Men's elite world race in Harrogate what Wash
I'd sanction Lloyd for sitting on wrong side of screen.
I'd add another 3:
1. Rohan Dennis pulling out of the Tour de France just before the time trial.
2. Rohan Dennis having his contract cancelled... TWICE
3. Rohan Dennis riding a BMC at the world champs
u23 race, stopping the womens field instead of the mens imo
Did Si just call Cameron Jeffers, Jennings 😂😂 That's the 14th most controversial moment right there 😂😂
Dan on the left and Si on the right. Controversial!
I agree this is all wrong Si should be on.the left ,
:D
I had to watch in a mirror!
what about the cyclist that had a mechanical but no one stopped to help him and he did was just to run with his bike while in tears?
My heart broke for that guy .... Poor little lamb.
That Colombian kid in the men's junior road race at the world champs. He did end up getting back in and finishing in the bunch though, what a ride.
Yes, though it's still heartbreaking to witness.
That sad moment reminded me of the heartbreak in Breaking Away when Dave was left in tears in the bushes by his cycling heros. Sometimes, real life imitates art. And I hope the young Colombian gets another day to shine on the big stage.
@Ryan Gibson men's junior road race world champs. Dario gomez the colombian cyclist
9:00cam Jennings 😂😂😂😂😂😂it’s Jeffers
Archie Atkinson Trolling Jeff ! 🤣
Huyyy Dan And Simon together. What a treat.!!!! I enjoy every second of it.
Eeckhoff is still the u23 champion to me.
Rob VGV no way to perfectly balance these things but I think re-locating your own shoulder should earn you a few minutes drafting behind a team car
you bunch of dutch guys :D
More controversy, Si on the right and Dan on the left???
Speaking of being taken out by your own teammate, Quintana was taken out by his whole team all year.
Seems like Movistar is pretty successful at team classifications with their "every man for himself" strategy.
Tha't's been going on for a couple of years now with them performing the "Movistar Special" with incomprehensible enthusiasm
Si and Lloydy giving my "hack or bodge" a bodge. Scandalous.
Interesting video as always!
Some of these controversial moments of the year made me scratch my head...
9:00 - I'm sorry what? Cam jennings? Think you mean Jeffers lads hahahahaha
Great video guys. Nice recap of a very entertaining 2019 season.
Cancelling a women’s race because of some slow men is absolutely infuriating.
They didn't cancel it, but they did make them wait. And it did (imo anyway) impact the outcome of the women's race as it caused the breakaway leader to stop and lose her momentum (and allow the peloton to recover further from chasing the leader). It would have been more fair to stop the slow men from racing further (hello broom wagon) and besides that decision (to take the slow men out of the race) would not have impacted the results of the men's race.
The men's race ended up going faster than the women's race.
Slow men, yet you have not taken into account that the men's race obviously ended up having a higher average speed and also was much longer? Of course they're going to ride out slower when they have a much longer race to cycle. And to the guy commenting about the woman in the breakaway she obviously wouldn't have won anyway seeing as it was 90 kilometres to the finish line. Had absolutely fuck all to say
mimimi
Has nothing to do with wet meat tubes. That’s done with later races all the time during conflicts. Get over yourself loser.
Spot on gents. Great refresher
What about the race where the rider fumed at the crew for mechanical and they taught him a lesson by not giving him the wheel.
where was that? im interested
@@urbanciber6839 czcams.com/video/oVD04cTfWd0/video.html
That’s what he gets for being an asshole 🤣😂🤣
Nate Santi The neutral service car was the asshole. It’s a race and refused to honor the contract of the neutral service.
@@tonycrabtree3416 Van Hooydonck was the asshole. He wants service, he has to behave himself. Threw the busted wheel at the neutral service guy and expect him to doff his cap and hand you the wheel? I think he'll remember his manners better next time.
Great vid - as always!
The most controversial moments in 2019 are each time race officials and marshals fail to ensure the riders' safety. An "over enthusiastic fan" is a lethal moron about to cause serious and durable damage. Hats off to Lopez, Roglic, and others who protected themselves.
Stage 19 of The Tour was sad but given the state of the road the only option. There was no way to 'fairly' decide the times.
Best Tour in ages.
Given at Bernal took silver at the 2014 UCI Mountain Bike & Trials World Championships, I'd guess that if the stage did continue, he would have taken more time out of all the other riders that were top 10 in GC.
Rohan Dennis spitting the dummy at the TdF then showing up on a rival bike at the worlds?
L Foster he actually was no longer in bahrain Merida at that point for worlds. So completely fine. Both him and Merida have respectfully parted ways
@@jimmybrain9237 except for the little detail of the pending UCI arbitration for $1MM EU in lost wages for "breach of contract" :)
And winning!
😂😂😂😂👏👏👏👏
I don’t even bike but i can’t stop watching these haha
Didn't the DS at Moviestar (I think Max Seandri) give one of his team bike to a rider on another team to finish the stage on? Not controversial but how about a video of the most sportingmanship moments of 2019?
To Antwan Tolhoek (Jumbo Visma) after he had given his bike to Roglic during the DS pee incident.
Japan Cup!! I heard Woods asked Mollema how many rounds there were left and Mollema said 1 but it was the last so Woods didn't sprint...
Hi Jens, Mollema finally responded to that in early december and said it wasnt true. Good story though.
The Soler - Quintana incident reminds me of the 2009 Giro stage of which Dan Lloyd might have a nice anecdote! Cervelos Serge Pauwels had to wait for the main bunch to help out a panicking Carlos Sastre, who couldn't follow the main GC guys. After Pauwels had dropped back significantly the riders stopped the fight and Pauwels could continue to claim the second place after his earlier breakaway compagnion.
Some very funny moments. laughing at them made my broken foot hurt, but it was worth it.
The giro was bloody brilliant last year.
Maybe Miguel Angel Lopez didn't get sanctioned because his payback to the fan was so funny and satisfying to watch.
Gotta love the guy in green on the left hand side of the road at 0:35.
Wow - first to comment! If you had many more to list... get a part 2 in there! Nice vid! Love these end of year review ones
I knew they were programmed robots 😂 check hand movements on Si and Lloyd at 5:24
love u guys
You are sat on the wrong sides gents, it's messing with my head. 😂
The neutral service mechanic refusing to give Nathan van Hooydonck a spare wheel after the rider had thrown his old wheel at the service car during the Tour of Belgium deserves a mention.
9:00 Cam Jennings 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Nikola Jovanovic why did you copy me
@@archieatkinson2063 So that GCN notice they made a mistake and put it in the GCN show :--)
Nikola Jovanovic yea but I said it first
#1 Movistar riding hard at the Vuelta Espana when race leader Roglic and Company hit the deck
#2 the Men's elite world race in Harrogate what Wash
Cam Jennings do you mean Jeffers Si 😂
2:17 Madraso goes on to win the stage, towed all the way to the finish by that same water bottle.
What about the kid in U23 that didn’t get neutral support
To me, cancelling Stage 19 of the 2019 Tour De France was not controversial.
However, what was controversial, not allowed in the UCI rules and very wrong was taking the time gaps from the l'Iseran.
What makes even less sense to me is that the ASO broke the rules to create a much worse race, imagine how cool it would be if we entered the final day of the Tour with Alaphillippe in the race lead only to break, leaving the virtual GC lead to Bernal from Thomas by 5 seconds.
I think that Bernal would win with or without team orders, however, team orders (probably so that Kruijswijk, +17s on Virtual GC, couldn't pass them both) would have made it the closest Tour ever. I could see Kruijswijk desperately attacking to try and win before dropping behind.
Also, maybe Nibali and the break wouldn't take the stage with Ineos setting a high pace to drop Alaphillippe and a more aggressive GC race. Would Thomas be allowed to sprint for the stage and take the bonus seconds to win, and would he want to?
Lastly, it would show that 'every second counts' because without losing 5 seconds in a split on Stage 3 Thomas and Bernal would be equal on time entering the final day of racing. I'm not sure who would be ahead on fractions of a second from the ITT, but it again poses the same team orders/no team orders question.
Approved
Missing the crazy rainy stages at the world championships
Mother Nature was the Biggest Fan , storming the road ahead of the break with the nastiest "Mud Corner"
Lol they tried to pull a Contador. 6:40
I think the most controversial was the under 23 World Championship, but i'm Italian, so che disqualification was aaabsolutely right!
A not mentioned moment was the finale of "tre Valli Varesine" when the bike in front of the peloton took the wrong way and all the front peloton followed it, so the race was totally distorted
About Attack after Crash... look on Netflix and find out serial about this team (this unexpected day or smth like that)
At 2:15 ...... So when did getting a boost from the car handing you the water become a thing?
Mitchelson Scott getting their team leaders flipped the wrong way for the tour. As Homer Simpson would say "Doh".
What about the young Colombian guy who got past by the Neutral Service car in the world championships.. that was well contro' !
oh yeah
No mention of Dwars Door Vlaanderin?
Si’s totally blown his chances of becoming UCI President after that performance!
First thought he is Hugh Jackman :D
I've heard that Daniel Friebe's list goes to 18.
Whaaat😱😱 Wolverine watches cycling??
Hey, you switched places! Not used to Loydy on the left...
Jacob Fuglsangs de-placement in Basqe tour
He knew the route, the other did not, but they was given same time as winner, Jacob missed tour 2. place
Rohan Dennis walking out of the TDF mid stage.
Want to find out how those technical appeals to CAS turned out...
Cam Jeffers, not Jennings
that bernal guy win the yellow jersey because of the storm
Constantly trying to scratch off the white dot at the bottomcorner of the tv in the back.
Nicole Hanselman should have been let to embarrass some of the men in that race, if she could've of course... Would of loved to have seen that.
Cameron Jeffers?
Mark Cavendish being left out of the TdF!! Gutted for him!!!
2:18 is he holding onto the water bottle extra long for a bit of a lift?
Yeah, sticky bottle. It’s legal
What other sport can a fan get onto the course and push a participant, and in what other sport would it ever be tolerated? Things like holding a water bottle to get a boost from a car etc, just seem wrong to me as a non bike race fan.
Lopez was lucky, the UCI awarded some crappy penalties lately. Here's a bad idea. Riders are awarded one spectator beating a Tour, in such a high stress environment, it's understandable.
The colours in that video are a bit strange. It looks like the person doing the grading overdid the contrast and saturation. It's particularly noticeable on Dan and Sis' skin tones in the studio.
3:08 Neil Zackov? Seriously?
I knew subtitles can be bad, but THIS bad?!
Cam Jennings? isn't it Cam Jeffers?
I remember in one xc race I was leading with a 3 second gap to 2nd and 3rd. Second place crashed in a corner and 3rd place crashed into him. And me being the piece of shit I am I attacked. However I then later on decided to slow down a bit and let him catch up.
Remove “strange” from “Strange UCI decisions”. Entirely superfluous
Hey what'u doing sitting that way round?
Controversy!
Cam Jennings🙂
Dan! You need to lighten up in your senior years.
Sanction Eekhoff? No. No.
How do you say 'all pros are a bunch of cheats' but not make it sound like a bad thing everytime?
Moment: czcams.com/video/A5ZDFnAaXME/video.html
While Liane Lippert (Sunweb) attacks, she almost gets run off the road by a motard, back in April at the Brabantse Pijl.
What was controversial about Madrazo being hit by his team car? It's not like people were arguing about whether he deserved to get hit harder or something... Likewise, Campanaerts and Roglic's bike changes. All of those are just mistakes, not controversies. And what were they supposed to do in Stage 19 of the Tour? The road was physically blocked. Sure, the riders were pissed off but I don't remember anyone suggesting that, say, they should shoulder their bikes and cyclocross it across the mudslide.
WOW how anticlimactic! The UCI being pathetic as usual. When are the pro teams going to demand a complete over haul of the UCI officials? OR why Haven't they?
Pretty sure Si wearing a bum bag was the most controversial thing that happened this year
2:18 - that's cheating being that far up front and getting the team-car to push you. This belittling of the sport needs to stop.
dais un visión sesgada solo mostráis el momento y no como se llego a el ... salsa rosa o prensa amarilla en youtube
Two races can be run on the same course at once, all my local crit races run two races at once, surely the uci can manage it
Do your local crits have huge convoys of support vehicles?
Does anyone know where Rohan Dennis? #controversial #TDF2019
JEFFERS🙄
For the dedication the cyclist gives to his sport, and the cost of the kit & team, one might expect a bit more professionalism from the motorcycles (with cameramen) that get in the way of the cyclists.
Alternative title: the UCI making 12 dodgy calls
Mark Cavendish being listed and shortly after that unlisted for races this season by DimensionData.
The treatment of Mark at DiData in general. (Like,let that man have his TdF,what's the problem??)
You know what?
Let's just say DiDatas management in general.
Rohan Dennis quit in TDF!!!
The TdF stage was just awfully handled. You can't retroactively end a stage like that.
The whole women's race stop for the men's race was probably unavoidable...but really bad optics.
The uci is one of the most inconsistent organizations in its rule enforcement.
hmmm never heard of cam jennings
Si you need a haircut......nice one ☝️
No controversial moments on the Womens cat? you should include them a bit more.
This video could probably be renamed "13 times the UCI showed us they have no idea what they are doing"
Momentos polêmicos e controversos.. causados pelos atletas ou público? NÃO! Ampla maioria causada pela própria UCI. Perguntamos: Para que a UCI?
Cam Jeffers
not jennings
Si... you're on the wrong side !!!!
The UCI can toss my salad
You should change GCN to GMCN and add a GWCN. Only one women related topic which was very brief and maybe one of the biggest WTF moments.
Yetzibo? Jetse Bol
