Although they waited in vain for the mayor at the Budapest station of the competition, Karácsony was presumably occupied with the tasks of the prime minister candidate, 888.hu wrote. The left's favorite boy-next-door, who couldn't even fulfill his duties as mayor - moreover, it was a bicycle race of historical significance in Hungary - can be very snowed in.

On the fifth stage of the Tour de Hongrie, the Hungarian cycling race, the press waited in vain for Gergely Karácsony, invited by the main organizer, he canceled the ribbon cutting shortly before the start.

888.hu contacted the main organizer of the competition, Károly Eisenkrammer, who said that it is a tradition at the competition that the mayors of the target cities are asked to present the awards at each stop. This is also the procedure according to the competition rules.

And if for some reason the given mayor cannot appear, he usually sends someone for this task instead of him," the chief organizer told our portal. We also asked Eisenkrammer whether this happened in this case, whether Karácsony sent even one of his 41 advisers instead of him. The main organizer answered the question in the negative.

So Gergely, apart from a few apparent measures, is presumably not very excited about cycling or the role of mayor anymore. The only question is, what would Gergely Karácsony come up with, sitting in the prime minister's chair, that he would then put before the leadership of the country?!
