Double Tour de France champion Jonas Vingegaard (Visma-Lease a Bike) called on the UCI and race organisers to react to the chaotic events of the end of stage 1 of the Volta ao Algarve, where the majority of riders went off course in the final kilometre, leading to a stage cancellation.
The organisation's error sparked surreal scenes, with Filippo Ganna (Ineos Grenadiers) staying on the right side of the barriers, which was the proper course, and taking a solo stage victory, only to be told after his solo sprint he was not the winner and the race would begin for real the following day.
