Greipel complains about Roglic drafting at Volta ao Algarve - News Shorts
(Cyclingnews.com)
 


Greipel criticises moto driver for allowing Roglic to draft Andre Greipel questioned the fairness of Primoz Roglic´s jump into the leader´s jersey at the Volta ao Algarve on Friday, posting a photo of a race motorbike closely in front of the Slovenian during the stage 3 time trial. Greipel said he had no complaints with Roglic himself - `every rider would do the same` - but was unhappy with the marshal`s failure to accelerate and prevent Roglic from entering the slipstream.  `FairPlay that is what we want @UCI_cycling?` Greipel wrote on Twitter with a photo of Roglic behind the moto. He then added: `Guys don`t get me wrong-every rider-including me would do the same and use the slipstream.... so @rogla can`t do anything about it.`ADVERTISEMENT His complaints echo similar ones made recently by Dan Martin, who posted a photo of a two-man break behind a moto at the Tour of Oman, with the caption, `Always great to watch another round of the Motorpacing World Series`. Tosh Van der Sande posted a similar photo from the Ruta del Sol on Thursday, saying `This has to stop! Either you buy a proper telelens or you ride on the other side of the road... #notfair.` ĦEl tras moto de @rogla! #valgarve2017 pic.twitter.com/EwfrODEjJE - Alpe d`Huez B&T (@Alpe__dHuez) February 17, 2017 No broken bones for Keukeleire Orica-Scott`s Jens Keukeleire was involved in a collision with a car while training on Thursday in Benidorm, Spain, but he has escaped serious injury. - ORICA-SCOTT (@OricaScott) February 17, 2017 Martin disappointed with 2nd in Algarve ITT Roglic confident after taking Volta ao Algarve lead Tour of the Alps announces 18-team field You can read more at Cyclingnews.com
