Is De Lie just gonna go (almost) solo to races from now on?
Very mature and professional statement from the kid - respect!DE LIE
"There was a little dilemma. If everyone had stopped, the Etoile de Bességes would not have been able to continue. I didn't ask myself whether to continue or not: you respect the organizers. Without races we can't do our job."
