I've only seen the video on that article above but that seems like a bit of an exaggeration, he doesn't appear to be doing anything other than running alongside the peloton

If I was to elbow someone in the street...what do you think the outcome might be....just because he's a famous "cyclist" doesn't or shouldn't mean he get's a pass.

I agree, but his actions aren't deliberate in the eyes of the authorities, Froome doesn't have that excuse.

I recall Belli doing just what Froome did to that spectator in the Giro and he was thrown off the race.

The person he hit was Simioni's relative.

Pretty sure it has happened quite often before too.
Oddly I was watching the crowd closing in on the lead riders and thinking that there would be an accident sooner rather than later, especially with the idiots trying for selfies these days.

I've seen Contador hit a spectator, Armstrong also.

WADA report released today. Breaking news summaries currently.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/36823453

Quote
Russia operated a state-sponsored doping programme at the Sochi Winter Olympics in 2014, claims a new report.

The country's ministry of sport "directed, controlled and oversaw" the manipulation of urine samples provided by Russian athletes, an investigation commissioned by the World Anti-Doping Agency has found.

In Putin's Russia the security services quite literally take the piss.

643 positive tests covered up between 2012 and 2015. At a minimum, because of the inability to access all the relevant information from the Russians those 643 are just those known about. Russian ministers in their Sports Ministry (including those who've threatened to sue foreign press for claiming doping happened) decided whether to let a positive test stand or whether to make it disappear. Covers every sport, although athletics and weightlifting made up roughly half of the known 643 positive tests.

Scale of it is quite amazing.
