Brailsford dismisses suggestion Team Ineos have Tour de France discipline issue

Dave Brailsford has dismissed the idea that Team Ineos have a discipline issue after Luke Rowe was ejected from the Tour de France along with Tony Martin (Jumbo-Visma) following their clash on stage 17. The incident marked the second time in as many years that one of Brailsford’s riders has been ejected from the Tour after Gianni Moscon was disqualified in 2018 following a similar incident. The Italian tried to strike Elie Gesbert on stage 15 of last year’s Tour.
