Again, from stage 7 live CN coverage. Quote from Stu O'Grady:
"After I got caught behind Petacchi's split, I got back on as they were stalling a bit. I was inclined to go straight by and saw it was Henk up front. I hesitated for that second, and it was too late. At 500 metres out, I thought Henk was going to get it."
What the hell? Stu doesn't ride for Henk's team, he shouldn't hesitate. There are too many aussies in the peloton to bn playing that kind of partisan nonsense. Hopefully after reading this, the Cofidis manager will tell Stu in no uncertain terms who's signing his paycheques. It certainly isn't the AIS.
