“I hope it will be this exciting again because we are ready for it now”: No more photo finish controversies (hopefully) at Amstel Gold, as race organisers upgrade equipment Too little, too late for a certain Mr Pidcock, however… cycling AmstelGoldRace
That imperceptibly close call, one which seemed to contradict the images captured by the television cameras, sparked a seemingly endless debate, as well as spawning more than a few conspiracy theories, with Pidcock himself even to this day continuing to claim, albeit light-heartedly, that he is the rightful winner of the 2021 edition of Amstel.
The AG2R Citroën puncheur, naturally, celebrated wildly, only to be told minutes later that the race had, in fact, been awarded to Pidcock’s Ineos teammate Michał Kwiatkowski – with the photo finish at least providing some clarity that time around.
Addressing the Cosnefroy debacle from 2022, Van Vliet added: “In a similar case, the jury no longer declares a winner at all, until we are 100 percent sure. And the TV stays out of the jury car for a while, so they don’t call the wrong name either.
