From Reuters:
"I did not feel too well in the Galibier (climb) and from that point, it was my decision to ride a conservative race. I decided to let Mayo go and to control (Spaniard Joseba) Beloki," he said [..] He complained his leading rivals, like Beloki, who was second last year, did not chase Mayo when the Euskaltel team leader made his decisive move."
I wonder whether Armstrong was inaccurately quoted, but I find interesting that he is supposedly complaining about his rivals not chasing Mayo after saying that he decided not to chase him himself because he was no threat. Isn't it double standard?
