After Peter Sagan's victory on Sunday, Oleg Tinkov saw the World champion move into the yellow jersey for the first time in his career. It was a great moment for the Tinkoff team owner. According to Belgian media, he now claims that if the Slovak rider wins another two stages, he will continue to invest in cycling.
"It's nice for Peter (to wear the yellow jersey). Cycling really needs guys like him. Froome is a great rider, but when it comes to the look, charisma and entertainment, he does not come close to Sagan.
"If Sagan wins another two stages, I'll stay in cycling."
"I am split between two emotions. One half is happy, the other one sad. But I still believe in Alberto. He is a strong man. Last year, he fell twice in the Giro, but in the end he won. I hope for him that he can repeat that feat. Of course, Contador does not feel so good after two crashes. He is a bit sad and disappointed. But if his recovery goes well, he can win. "
