Why the result-heavy organizer pages move to Results

Explains why the result-heavy organizer pages sit on the Results view after the finish.

The spoiler-safe page still keeps the Limburg route shape and the official tourism guide in view, but the 2026 route announcement and the all-in-one men’s race desk now belong on the Results side because Amstel’s page chrome opens with the finished podium and post-race coverage.
