Whoa, Whoa, Whoa! CdD25-6
The title is a direct quote from Anthony McCrossan who was commenting for the NBC broadcast of today's Dauphine stage. I am quite sure that Paul Ourselin (Cofidis) and Christopher Juul-Jensen (Jayco-Alula) had some more choice words to express how upset they were with the driver that started to pull onto the roadway as they sped past. The driver arrived after the lead vechicles and gendarmes had already passed. The car stayed put once they saw the four-man breakaway. These two were off the front of the peloton by a minute and a half with Romain Combaud (Picnic-PostNL) and Victor Guernalec (Arkea-B&B Hotels). Ourselin used the early part of the day to pad his lead in the King of the Mountians jersey. The Maillot a Pois is a bit different design then the one used at the Tour de France. I can't think how many times I have made this same gesture to cars that nearly run into me out on the road. Fortunately, the car stopped. No one was hurt.
