“I turned on the TV to watch the Tour and by mistake I was on another channel, I only heard screams and some green smoke. Thank God there is ‘Goga’ “Guerrero wrote on Twitter, although after the commotion he deleted it.

Before his departure from the Tour de France was announced, Egan himself realized what had happened and went in to ask for calm. Even his ‘ex’ ended apologizing to Sábato.

However, in that last message, she reiterated that when she turned on the television she heard “shout about the green smoke and other things I did not understand“, So it seems that the misunderstanding was not entirely clear.

Carapaz, the 2019 Giro and “Back to the future”

Clearing the situation requires remembering Sábato’s stories in previous years, and particularly that of the 2019 Giro d’Italia, when the winner was the Ecuadorian Richard Carapaz, whom the journalist nicknamed ‘La locomotora de Carchi’.

Since then, Sábato continues to use the name. Also, when compared to a locomotive makes a reference to the famous movie ‘Back to the Future’.

In particular, it is the third installment of that saga, in which Marty McFly and Emmet Brown, the protagonists, board a locomotive that must accelerate to a certain speed for the time machine to work and they can return to their time. However, they are in 1885, so to achieve this they must overload the boiler with a series of colored logs which are more powerful than normal ones.

One of those logs is just green, which exploding inside the machine causes the machine to emit green smoke.

Since then, when Carapaz accelerates, Sábato says that he puts the green log, then the yellow and finally the red, which is its maximum speed.

This is the scene in the movie where the “green smoke” is seen, and which clears up the misunderstanding that some may have interpreted as completely wrong:
