In France, the 111th edition of one of the most famous classic cycling races—the Tour de France—is underway. Behind us is the 15th stage, which was 198 kilometres long and took place on the route between Loudenvielle and Plateau de Bielle.
This section's winner was Slovenian Tadej Pogacar, who strengthened his lead in the overall race classification. However, this stage will also be remembered for the scandalous behaviour of some fans on the race route.
These situations were made public in a video released by the Polish branch of the Eurosport channel. The footage showcased two outrageous situations.
In the first instance, one of the fans decides to dash madly after the TV broadcast team's scooter. After a moment, another viewer kicked the man, which could have resulted in a loss of balance and a fall under the wheels of one of the vehicles servicing the cyclists.
Commentators outraged. They did not mince words
After a moment, another outrageous situation occurred. One of the fans standing by the road decided to... pull down his pants and show his bare buttocks to the camera. The fans' antics quickly drew reactions from the commentators, who harshly criticised the viewers' behaviour.
