Rowe and Martin being disqualified is real underhand tactics from UCI, no coincidence that they're the road captains for the two riders in the Top 4 that aren't French. And this is coming from someone who's wanting a French winner as well.

Their apology.

They are looking to appeal the decision. I hope they both get reinstated.

Probably one of the bizarre ends to a stage in Tour de France history:

Egan Bernal is poised to become the first Colombian to win the Tour de France after finishing Saturday's penultimate stage in the yellow jersey.

Race tradition dictates that the race leader is not challenged on Sunday's final stage to Paris.

Bernal, 22, will become the youngest Tour winner for 110 years, with Ineos team-mate Geraint Thomas in second.

Dutchman Steven Kruijswijk moved up to third as Julian Alaphilippe faded on an Alpine stage won by Vincenzo Nibali.

Congrats to Bernal! First South American to win the Tour, quite the achievement. At only 22 as well, who knows what's coming his way...

We all knew Alaphillippe was going to crack but good on him for staying Top 5, it was a real shame to see Pinot go out like that though as he was poised to take it. Somewhat of a shock to see Bardet as the only Frenchman to win a jersey when he's the one we all wrote off as well wink.gif

Ineos have a massive leadership battle on their hands now...
