Del Toro was practically invisible on the track.

The article discusses a technical issue faced by cyclist Isaac del Toro during the 113th Tour de France. Mechanic Boštjan Kavčnik of the UAE team received a yellow card for providing unauthorized assistance to del Toro, who encountered problems with his bike's electronic gear shifter. The issue occurred around 60 kilometers before the finish line of the second stage, where del Toro was nearly invisible on the track due to the situation. Despite receiving a spare bike from a support vehicle, del Toro managed to continue the race. Kavčnik explained that the problem might have been caused by another rider hitting him, triggering the crash mode on his bike. Although the incident generated significant attention, it did not result in any penalties for the UAE team. The article also mentions preparations for the upcoming individual time trial stage, where Pogačar is expected to compete with a competitive bike.
