• This writer obviously has no clue about the sport of cycling. A road race in particular is a far cry from a swimming pool or track where each competitor has their own lane, or even a field where the players are in a contained area. Getting updates on the race from the open road relies on cameras on motorbikes sending signals to a helicopter which then relays those signals to a broadcast booth. It's often impossible to know immediately precisely what's going on in the race. And with half the race still to go, who is "winning" and who is "second" is usually irrelevant.
