To illustrate: so Kuss rides 2000 miles carrying bottles and food backwards and forwards to, say, Roglic and protects Roglic from the wind and wipes his nose so all Roglic has to do is push the pedals and not fall off - and then after Roglic has been feather-beded for 17 days it turns out that Kuss is actually the stronger rider... you think it sporting to let a fresh Roglic and an exhausted Kuss "battle it out"?
