What's got into the French that they've got so clumsy all of a sudden?
Today there is news that one of their nuclear subs bumped into a British nuclear sub out in the Atlantic.
On Saturday we witnessed the nephew being taken out by a French 'bump' in the Keirin final of the UCI World Cup meeting in Copenhagen. Share the horror in the video below. Maybe it was the 'pastry' jibes that got to them.
Interviewed the day after in the Guardian, he came out with yet another great quote:
" I was impressed with the track though as sometimes in a crash like that you end up with so many splinters; these are all clean burns."
To bring back happier times, and to understand why the French team might be tempted to use such tactics, here is another Keirin final from last summer.
And in case it doesn't sound like it, I love France and the French- just not les coups de coude.
