Just watched it again on Eurosport HD. So what we saw was very clear.
No way, whatsoever was that accidental or an acceptable no blame racing incident. No doubt in the minds of all who were here watching it.
In my opinion that was way worse than any doping could ever be - life ban is in order.
Actually made me very angry watching that.
Bende yüksek çözünürlü olarak tekrar tekrar izledim ve kesinlikle ve kesinlikle kasıt olarak ve ciddi şekilde güç uygulayarak Impey'i yere düşürmüş Theo BOS.. Gerçekten böyle bir sporcuya yakışmayacak bir şeydi..

Well the final day of Tour of Turkey is over. It was really bitter-sweet for me as I would've like to enjoy the moment in yellow afterwards with my team who worked so hard to keep the jersey. I got taken down deliberately by Bos from Rabobank, you can even see it on youtube, only one word for him and that is a true chophead. He doesn't deserve to race anymore and I am thinking about going to the UCI about his dangerous riding. He tried to pass me 700m to go in the bunch sprint but there was no-where to go and all of a sudden I felt a hand on my shoulder pulling me into the barriers. We both crashed.
I was taken down really hard and I broke a tooth,got stitches in my face and elbow and the worst part is that I have a slight fracture in L1 part of my bike so I am forced to lie in an hospital bed on my back without moving. It is very frustrating and really was not how I was expecting to enjoy my day in yellow. I would've have won it if I didn't have Patrick Calgani with me, I told him I want to finish. He said lie down,the ambulance will pick you up. I told him no, even if I take an hour to cross the line I will because I have ridden too hard and dug too deep to give it to someone else and my team had ridden so well,was the least I could do.
Patrick pushed me all the way and I crossed the line when I then lay on the side waiting for the ambulance. Even though I never made the podium, me team went up for me and will be remembered. I can tell you I'm going to see Bos again and tell him exactly what a chophead he is. No wonder he has come nowhere in the kicks this week, probably too busy trying be a hero and show everyone how he did it on the track.
