Wanna get into watching it but I just dont get a lot of things about the race and the sport!
I get how the overall leader (yellow guersey) is the cyclist who completes the course the quickest and their times are carried over, but the sprinters guersey and pokadot guersey - do they start from different positions or something?
Also the concept of teams and strategy - at the end of the day the riders are riding by themselves, so how does a team play part in helping someone win? Like the other day i heard that an American from Cadels team went back to get Cadel but couldnt reel him in to the leader. Is it about motivation and blocking?
