David Gaudu has apologised after criticising his Groupama-FDJ teammate, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Arnaud Démare, in an online chatroom conversation th꧟at was leaked on Wednesday night.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:David Gaudu, a regular on the video streaming channel Twitch, was exchanging text-based messages on th😼e Discord platform last week and revealed tensions between himself and Démare, stating openly that he didn't want the French sprinter to join him at this year's Tour de Fran𒈔ce.
The conversation is dated from the evening of January 20 but screengrabs were leaked on social media on Wednesday evening, leading Gaudu t𓃲o apologise🍌 on Thursday morning.
He issued a first apology on Twitter that was attached - and therefore drew attention - to the incriminating screengrabs, but he soon deleted it and posted a standa🐼lone message.
"My remarks never should have been aired in a public space," Gaudu wrote. "I 🦩have apologised to the team an𝓡d to Arnaud."
The screen𝓰grabs, the veracity of which has been established by Gaudu's reaction, show the French climꦛber, who placed fourth at last year's Tour de France, casually discussing his tense relationship with Démare, FDJ's lead sprinter.
"Me, I don't want him to come ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚto the Tour," Gaudu wrote in the chatroomꦓ on January 20, adding: "Good Netflix or not, I don't care."
Gaudu later made a reference to "filming" in saying Démarღe "deliberately tried to put me down", although Démare didn't ride the 2022 Tour de France, where camera crews were shooting an upcoming Netflix docuseries.
Gaudu then suggested Démare once "didn't want to get ♕in the lift because 'there's Gaudu'."
Returning to the possibility of sharing space - and support riders - in FDJ's 2023 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Tour de France squad, Gℱaudu made clear the rift that has open🦋ed between them.
Asked what the team's aims were, he said: "Haha, if we knew them, then it's another piece of in𝔉formation for the final 𒉰equation [...] the war is not over [...] we're on a crusade [...] the good thing is we don't speak and we almost never race together."
A little while later, Gaudu returned to the topic when a fellow Discord user jokingly - but accurately - suggested he should take care in case this created 'dram✤a' on Twitter.
"Oof, you know it," Gaudu said. "If he wants me to say it to his face I can very well do so. I am not scared of him [...] He knows I don't want him at the Tour, I've already told 🦋him."
