Barguil furious at 'idiot' Gasparotto as Arctic Race of Norway victory 'unfairly' slips away

Warren Barguil (Arkea-Samsic) saw overall victory at the Arctic Race of Norway slip agonisingly through his fingers on the final stage 4 in Narvik. The taste of disappointment was made all the more bitter by what he felt was an 'unfair' move from another rider that prevented him following eventual winner Alexey Lutsenko at the end of the stage.
