'Chaingate scandal' - Comment by Jens Voigt / Lux. media

An interview with Jens Voigt as well as some commentary by the Luxembourgish media after Alberto Contador attacked Andy Schleck during a mechanical problem. This happened during the 15th stage of the 2010 Tour de France, which led from Pamiers to Bagnères-de-Luchon.

Seen as Luxembourg is such a tiny country, and seen as the language is only spoken by so few people, I decided to add subtitles. Depending on the response and popularity, I might do the same with other videos about the brothers.
After all, these guys are great ambassadors for the sport and our small but proud nation.


This video is property of RTL Télé Lëtzebuerg. If you speak Luxembourgish, then please watch this stuff on their site instead of on Youtube. They have a great video archive and they put a lot of effort into it.

Jens speaks Luxembourgish ?! Anyway it's similar to German language to me xD

[cutthroooat]

@thetrupok He doesn't, but I added subtitles anyway. It's german this time. =)

[AKA1Ralph]

That's German media, always looking to knock down the champ. Ask Jan, Boris Becker or Steffi Graf.

[cutthroooat]

@AKA1Ralph It's not German media. Read the video description please.

well looks like AC was on drugs (oh sorry TAINTED MEAT) anyway BOOOO HOOOO

[Radsharky]

And what was Contador supposed to do - pull over and wait for his chain to be fixed?

[BLRadler]

@ClockCutter I don't mean Voigt or Schleck, just Contador.

[ClockCutter]

@BLRadler That's entirely besides the point.

[BLRadler]

@ClockCutter He has never won with his own power, just with doping

[ClockCutter]

The quick assumption that Contador is not a "great champion" because he rode past Schleck is alarming. He's a great champion simply because he's won so many championship races. Contador is only guilty of not turning around and laughing at A. Schleck and his incompetent attack in the wrong gears.

[LittleGodOfGods]

Contador is the best, will win again 2012

Andy Schleck will never win the TDF, simply because hes not good enough, no killer instinct, no Time trial, forget it.

Oh man! I've been learning German for 6 years and I still don't know it enough to understand what Jens is saying.

Besides, your language is very interesting. I've watched a lot of Schleck's interviews and it's like a combination of German and French to me. But I suppose I'm wrong :D
