That's just horrible if true.
I hope it's not.

Not that the result really matters in this situation, but Jakobsen got relegated.

Fighting the tears here. So unfair.

I’m at a loss for words. So incredibly sad. Prayers to his family and friends during this very difficult time.

Horrible news

 

[klintE]

Absolutely shocking news.

No racing tomorrow, stage will be neutralised, one finishing circuit and Lotto Soudal will finish first, if they take part

(via Twitter of Jarosław Marycz, chairman of Polish Professional Riders Association)

Much expected, it has happened more often than not recently when someone has died during the stage race.

Stage 4 start. Mood is very quiet, somber and sad.
Commissaire's car has black flags instead of red.

 

[Lequack]

The peloton has stopped and taken a moment of silence for Bjorg.

 

[Pricey_sky]

Extremely sad scenes, I really feel for the whole team.

 

[Lequack]

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Very touching from the Polish people

 

[RedheadDane]

Also very touching the way Marczyński has put Lambrecht's number under his jersey, over his heart…

Heavy images at the 'finish'.

Bjorg could've won there, it was tailormade for him.
