Amazing RvV. The biggest rivalry in cycling nowadays, both professionally and personally, and two riders with a personal connection to the region. A lot of drama and emotion with an incredible finish. And the most beautiful thing; this rivalry on the road has just begon. Congrats to MvdP in any...

As expected, the Polish doctors confirmed that Fabio didnt have to be reanimated for an hour. The confusion probably had to do with the intubation, or artificial ventilation, that was applied. Thats obviously different from reanimation where brain damage is already a huge risk within a minute or...

The shattered trachea and palate were already mentioned before. But most of Fabo's facial bones are broken and he lost most of his teeth. Although the brain, central nerve system, vital organs, and eye balls dont seem to be damaged, its too early to tell how the nerve system in his face has been...

Fabio has a shattered trachea and palate. In Dutch articles I read he had to be reanimated on the spot for an hour. I assume they actually mean they had to apply artificial ventilation for an hour. If they actually had to fully reanimate him (also the blood circulation) for an hour its hard to...

I dont see why Dylan has to apologize to any of us, he has to and most likely will apologize to Fabio, I feel we have more use by discussing what we can do to prevent actions/falls like the one we saw yesterday in Poland.

First its not a fair comparison. Cycling is an extremely risky sport. Particularly when you participate in a 80 km/h sprint. The persons walking under a car didnt sign up for such risks. Pro cyclists, to certain extent, do. That doesnt clear Dylan from any blame, on the contrary, but if we start...

I understand emotions are running high. And that is completely understandable. But *** happens.... Dylan clearly made a mistake with awful consequences. But there was also a lot of bad luck involved. This kind of actions happen regularly (unfortunately), sometimes with ugly falls, and this...

I am quite biased but the riders really made this Giro, also some legendary stages, for me it was a 9 at least. For the expert it might have been disappointing how the stages were set up but for the casual fan, the non-expert, it was entertainment at the highest level.

Re: He has received help, obviously, but it is quite a harsh statement looking at the relative weakness of his team, the pact between Nibali and Quintana, losing Kelderman in the process, having an ultra bad day, and his poop affair right before the Stelvio so lets not forget his own...
