How's that for a victory salute??

Guy's been busted for doping more than a few times, including distribution. Must explain his mental state as he crosses the finish first on Stage 4 at the Tour of Qinghai Lake in China...

Even Cav would be proud...

Maybe his ex is in the crowd.

It's still better than Contador's silly gun salute thing.

and it only got him ejected from the race! wise choice of salutes.

No malice was intended, it was a tribute to his two year old child. It confused me when I saw it the first time also.

Edit: It was Sastre 2003

Oops!!! Didn't know that. Still looked really odd.
