I never did hear what the fight was about. Cadel Evans punched at another rider on another of the early stages, toward the finish. Didn't find out what spurred that, either.
So far what I've seen is Renshaw is expelled. Maybe the continued fouls are why they decided to crack down on Renshaw, hoping that further nastiness will be reduced.
Some people are saying Julian Dean did something bad, too, though they're not saying what. I guess he got a fine; so did someone else. I forget who.
Just race, guys, right? Win it clean, or lose it fair. Yeah it stinks to lose, but cheating and fighting and nasty? Does not help the sport, nor your chances to win.
