Default Freire just chopped everyone in the sprint

Freire just chopped everyone, by moving across the road. I reckon there will be some sprinters who are not too happy

Freire changed his line in the last 200 metres.

Rules of sprinting say you can't change your line like that, but I guess since there wasn't a crash, and he was clearly the strongest in that sprint he got away with it.
