He was second in the Bessèges TT on his pro debut which finishes on a pretty significant climb. It definitely isn't his forte and never will be, but who knows how well he will be able to do outside of TTs in general in a few years?
Definitely a big engine and a big guy overall, and only 19. That was a Remco-like performance, he beat all the usual TT suspects except Ganna and the man himself...

How the F was Kung allowed to continue racing FFS? If for nothing than for the helmet which obviously didn't comply with the rules anymore... amateurism.

Seems like he was back on the bike instantly, and from behind him the people in the car obviously couldn't see what his he looked like.

the jury must've had information (seen other shots of him) about the state of his equipment for sure... the car behind him must've seen him when he was getting on the bike from all sides for sure... this is just ridiculous

He was pretty much at the finish, so they might simply not have had the time to realise stop him before he'd finished. And there were people ready to check him out as soon as he finished.

The World’s TT showed us all we need to know about Tarling and this repeated it. Remco and Ganna are gonna have big competition with him. 19 is young even by today’s standards, even if he’s an early bloomer he’s got more to grow into.

Another one off the track. Just hope he continues in a nice progression and not get ruined like some who have gone there.

it's not about being ruined. it's every athlete path is different. everything can go tits up and be hard to get it back again.

You understand that applies to road cycling as well right? It's more aero to not look where you're going there as well.
Ya ok dude. Road cycling and ITT pretty much the same :rolleyes:
ITT probably 100x more dangerous.

Egan Bernal?
I don't know too many injuries where a road pro just rides into a static object and near kills themselves
