Paul Seixas had zero recriminations after a punishing day at the Tour Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, blaming only himself for the hole that he somehow dug himself out of. However, one of his Decathlon CMA CGM teammates has questioned the actions of rival teams.
Léo Bisiaux was the rider who helped Seixas plug the final bit of what was once a four-minute gap on Saturday's stage, going on to guide him half-way up the final climb of the Grand Colombier.
