Rider disqualified for headbutt, sprint teams call BS on controversial finish

You always think about it on the way, but when we still had 2 minutes pretty late in the race, you start believing. "But you have to think about what to do and what's important — not think about what can happen."His rivals were not so sure the fairytale story was appropriate.Elmar Reinders of Unibet Rose Rockets said that "everyone has an explanation" on how the breakaway survived, "but maybe not one meant for TV," he added in an interview with Domestique Cycling.He then made his accusations clear: "There was a very good motorbike up there.""We burned through 30 riders and still couldn't do it This was bullshit."Dversnes  shot down those accusations though: "There were actually four very strong motorbikes inside the breakaway."Tomorrow riders have a rest day, before a snappy 113km stage from Bellinzona to Carì.The final 12km is all uphill, the last 3km of which averages around 8 per cent with a maximum gradient of 13 per cent in the final kilometre.
