Anybody else notice that Siutsou seemed to be flying below EVERYONE's radar? Both the CN and VN live coverage spoke only of the race between Lepheimer and Lowe, as did the commentators in the streaming web feed. ALL of them proclaimed Lowe the overall winner upon his beating Levi to the line. Even Lepheimer and Lowe seemd content to let Siutsou ride away despite the fact that he was only six seconds back at the start of the day. What were they all thinking?

They were thinking that the TdG doesn't really matter. Siutsou's victory was a slap in the face to the organizers.
If they have any self-respect, the TdG committee will bust him on a trumped-up doping charge.
