The André Greipel-Mark Cavendish duel has been a fascinating subplot to this year’s 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Tour de France, not least because the bitterness that marked the 🅺pair’s time together at Highroad appears to have been tempered since Greipel’s departu🌳re from the team last winter.

Cavendish was magnanimous after being pipped by his German rival on stage 10, and following the reversal of that result on Wednesday, Greipel’s ire was directed not at Cavendish, but squarely at French fast man 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Romain Feillu (Vacansoleil-DCM).

"We tried again today and the team did a great job," Greipel told reporters hudd𝔉led around the Omega Pharma-Lotto team bus in Lavaur after the finish. He singled out Jurgen Roelandts for particular praise for his efforts in leading him out, but complained at what he perceived to be the careless sprinting of Feillu in the finale.

"We had no luck today. I had some great help from Roelandts, but I had some problems with Feillu," Greipe🔯l said. "It’s a shame, because it was the first time that Jurgen and I found each other in the sprint."

Greipel accused Feillu of switching wheels several times in the breat🐼hless run-in to Lavaur and showing little consideration for the safety of his fellow sprinters. The German was particularly aggrieved by Feillu’s attempts to latch onto Roedlandt’s wheel in the final kilometre.

"Romain Feillu did a crazy sprint and he just didn’t care," Greipel clai🅷med. "He needs to choose a wheel but he changes wheel every 50 metres. It’s pretty dangerous when somebody in the bunch is going craz🐷y to get the right spot."

Feillu set to abandon Tour de France

Feillu crossed the line in 6th place, and insisted to Sporza that he 𒅌had done nothing wrong in the final throes of the day’s stage. "I jumped on to Roedlandt’s wheel because if you have nobody to lead you out in the sprint, you have to jump from wheel to wheel," Feillu said.

The Frenchman, who has be🎀en struggled with tendinitis in this Tour, subsequently revealed that he is on the point of abandoning the race ahead of its entry into the Pyrenees.

"It’s not getting better at all, if anything it’s getting worse and worse," Feillu told rmc.fr. "I’m very disappointed, I&🦩rsquo;m leaving the Tour with some placings but without winning. I have nothing to reproach myself for, I’ve simply been missing a bit of luck. I’ll talk with the management, but abandoning would be the best solution. I can’t do the whole Tour like that, it’s not possible."
