    Things Vingegaard did before winning TDF:
    Rode the wrong way in Tirreno
    Confused about the blue jersey
    Crashed into Vlasov in a uphill punch in Itzulia
    Chopped Izagirre’s wheel in Itzulia
    Panicked on stage 5 TDF and went “BikeExchnage” all over the place

    Has to be AMSTEL GOLD with the poor Bernard Cosnefroy being told he was the winner and celebrating, Michał Kwiatkowski commiserating (although his celebration and commiseration face are pretty much one and the same), then the decision reversed after the photo finish judges showed Michał Kwiatkowski actually won.
    A cracking race, these last few editions have never failed to deliver epic races. Great commentating by Rob Hatch as well.

    regarding the tirreno mishap, the riders couldn't really see the turn coming up at that speed and there wasn't enough proper indication, so if you didn't knew the route well enough, you were fucked. The riders behind were helped by seeing that Remco, Vingegaard and Pogacar looked, slowed down and turned around (and were going slightly slower than those 3 who were on the attack)

    I have a hard time blaming some of the riders for these "fails." When a road has more than one possible route to take, there should be NO WAY to take the wrong one! There should be barricades, course marshalls and/or signs that make it clear where they're supposed to go. I've missed or made wrong turns just on organized rides that were poorly marked. And I wasn't going nearly as fast as these riders are.
