The Dutch master, Fabio Jakobsen, may very well have been speaking of himself, when he gave the interview to the Dutch podcast ‘The Polder’.

Here he comes into the internal rivalry that reigned between the sprinters Elia Viviani and Fernando Gaviria on the Deceuninck-Quick Step team, and he does not put many fingers in between.

More cykelsportsmedier, including cyclingtips.com report: namely, how the sprinters and their lead-out-people might go so far as to pee in each other’s vasketøjsposer according to Jakobsen.

Precisely what should have been the case for either Viviani and Fabio Sabatini or Gaviria and Iljo Kessie, as are the riders, the alleged rivalry should consist of.

Since the podcast was published, has Jakobsen even been out and pull a little in the country on twitter.

In the interview, I told what I thought was humorous stories of what can happen on a professional cycling team, but my words have been taken out of context, writes Fabio Jakobsen, among other things.

I did not mean. I have spoken to the parties involved, who have always had the upmost respect for as both teammates and competitors, and I look forward to seeing and racing with them again soon.
I sincerely apologise for any distress caused.

There was supposedly no friendly or collegial rivalry in the belgian cycling teams in every event.

– Sabatini and Keisse mobbede each other at the time, he says, according to the cyclingtips.com.

– Once I got the one shrimp in the other’s bag, and another time peed in the other’s, he adds.

How the context would have been radically different, report the story, not something about, like the team itself has reported nothing out of the story.

In each case was the dutchman did not hesitate to bring his regretful comments after the podcast came out.

Viviani and Gaviria reached only to step for the same crew in a single season in 2018, after which the first Gaviria and later Viviani left the team for the benefit of, respectively, the UAE-Team Emirates and Cofidis.
