Re:

Was it the collarbone?

He has blood coming out of his ear, I would say the collarbone isn't the most important issue right now

Re: Re:

Benoot and GVA. Flanders all in for Sep?

Sep's had 2 mechanicals and lone chases already. He'll surely pay for it later.

I know but apart from him and Boonen, who is left for Belgium?

 

[DenisMenchov]

Poor poor GvA

Roelandts!

How long until the next cobble climb? Got some non cycling fans who won't wait long with the tv remote

You can see a graphic with all the climbs and such info in the opening post. 97.9 km to go is when the next one comes and then three cobbled climbs within 10 kilometres.

It's quite late here in Aus and I'm well soiled with alcohol didn't want to mess it up lol

Roelandts, team leader for soudal now

Damn GVA is down and out

 

[Kwibus]

Awwww man not Greg!

He was going to be part of the finale.

Did Sean Kelly just call Haussler "hustler"?

GVA & Schär abandoned and are being transported to the hospital

Thought it was blood too, but Im pretty sure it was just a wire from earphones?

Did not notice that.
A broken collarbone would ruin the rest of his spring. That's why I'm asking

 

[TMP402]

If Greipel finished 15th last year, he might top 10 if he rode more conservatively.

Phinney still there I think, and Oss? Very very small consolation though.

No way that was blood. Earphone cord for sure.

Oss was definitely caught up, though. If he's got back on, that was a good effort.

Phinney brought him back right before the haaghoek

 

[GuyIncognito]

Politt! He's only 21. He's been surprisingly good at road races this year for a supposed one dimensional TTer

 

[robin440]

Politt and Greipel also train together quite often as they live in the same city

Yes, radio wire. It was shoulder / collarbone injury.

I really feel bad for GvA. The guy was in the best form of his life and the tears in his eyes obviously showed he realised that as well.

Gutted for Benoot too, but he has plenty of chances left and I really doubt he would've fought for the win.

The gap in my streams about equal to the gap on the road.

You think that's bad? I'm watching on TV and people are posting attacks here before I see them
