Crazy finish at Volta ao Algarve. Never seen such nonsense.

95 percent of the peloton went the wrong way in the sprint. Organizers really screwed this up and the riders hold some responsibility. Lucky that no one got hurt. Craziest thing I’ve ever seen in cycling. Wouldn’t believe it if I wasn’t watching.

Most of the riders were on the wrong side of the barriers/course.

Here’s a photo of the finish and you can see riders on the left of this picture that aren’t on the proper course.

Organisers stated that while they cancelled the stage results, they awarded Ganna leader's jersey.

They also took away the win from the winner and canceled the stage which is bull. Supposedly the lead rider followed the TV moto which took the wrong turn and everyone followed except for a few riders.
