I can see blood from road rash on his hip.

He should leave the race. It's too dangerous riding with a wound.

You actually forget how prone to crashing Rogla is.

What's remarkable is that notwithstanding he has an incredible palmares. It would have been much bigger if he was not always going down: numerable podium spots (at least 4) were vacant which already had his name on it.

With no crashes he wins 3 or 4 Tours. He would have been in GOATEE conversation and I'm not even kidding.

But crashes are part of the game so he is just one of the greatest human being alive for now.

Stomp, drop, and roll as they say

 

[Netserk]

Aside from the wound on his left hip, it's just superficial scratches.

I really think some of these guys that crash all the time need to spend some time on the MTB and/or CX bike in the off season with a skills coach. Pog does an annual CX race in Slovenia and has good bike skills. Primoz and Remco could definitely benefit with some off-road training.

Brutal

I hope it haunts him until the end of his career.

Rogla won't make it into second week of TdF. He just can't stay out of crashing. Even if it's not his fault, others manage to find him while crashing. Crazy really. It doesn't look serious, but he should be 100% all the time if he wants to have at least a little bit of hope in Tour. TT tomorrow...he probably won't be able to use much power. Eh.

Nicolas Prodhomme should be banned from the sport because every time he does anything, German commentators will call him Prudhomme a hundred times and I get triggered by it.

 

[Andre]

interview questions are getting ridiculous...they sound like the same question with the words in different places.

 

[JosefK]

Good crash result for Rog, only minor road rash, and now has reached one-week stage crash quota.

Cort wanting to gift a stage win to Rogla for robbing him yesterday.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

This Dauphine continues the streak of races in the last 3 years , where Roglic fans can claim that he would have been stronger and attacked more if he hadn't crashed. The weekend will be fun

 

[Rob5091]

Looks like Roglic dodged a bullet with that crash. Hope he's 100% for tomorrow as it'll be a "full gas" test ITT.

Robbing him?

If he didn't crash today, he would have attacked already, everybody knows.

 

[Alien Performance]

If he didn't crash today, he would have attacked already, everybody knows.

If he didn't crash today he would have won yesterday's stage

 

[Lequack]

I forgot that without Pog or Vinge, mountains stages can be pretty boring.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Lovely forests and greenery everywhere, love the heli shots!

 

[AmRacer]

So, 5 the last 7 stages have been won by 4 different Danish riders.

What mountain stages?

 

[QueenStagiaire]

What mountain stages?

Everybody knows that Pogačar would have already attacked here.
