Interesting piece on Velonews.
http://www.velonews.com/race/int/articles/3937.0.html
Judges call "foul!" There was some rough and tumble action in the fight for Cipollini's wheel, with
fight being the key word. Andris Nauduzs (CCC-Polsat) punched Petacchi in the head with 3km to go
and later crashed in the final kilometer, splitting the peloton.
Nauduzs was later kicked out of the Giro by race officials after TV replays showed him landing a
blow against Petacchi's head. Former race leader Petacchi was penalized 25 points in the spinter's
competition, but wasn't booted although he returned his own punch that missed.
Seems to be contagious. Bill C
