@vismaleaseabike It's a damn shame. In another life Carapaz would have done a Jonas and waited up when he saw Sepp on the ground but I guess you can't really blame him for racing on so close to the finish. And if he had Remco might have hoovered them both up anyway.
@willfoth There was much hilarity on Velo Club yesterday at the suggestion that it might be for practical reasons given the gastro-intestinal problems apparently going round the UAE squad. Alexandre Pasteur was briefly unable to speak!
@daniellloyd1 Well the parcours has a lot more connection to the Hauts-de-France than it does with Paris. If it means the region keeps putting money in then so be it. It's far less annoying than everyone thinking they have to say "avec Zwift" whenever the TdFF is mentioned.
