LeMonde was the up and comer Benard was the man. Hineault IMO didn't hose LeMond, his team did under orders.

Sure, but the order was on behalf of Hineault and wasn't LeMond clear by something crazy like 20 minutes? I can't remember exactly. And the Badger then promised to support LeMond the next year for the pull back, and then reneged on the promise and tried to beat LeMond. LeMond won anyway, but Hinuealt attacked him pretty constantly.

Like I said, I understand its good tactics, and its a team sports, but it does kind of suck. And Froome wasn't nearly as far ahead this year. That was a real minor sit up.
