Hey just tuned in. What has happened for Harmon to be talking about neutralising the stage?

 

[Greenflame]

Yeah, me too.

Can't really watch. Just hoping for a good news update at some point.

Yep that's the only reason I'm still watching as well..

Hey just tuned in. What has happened for Harmon to be talking about neutralising the stage?

Weylandt crashed and it looks very serious.

 

[JohnNordin]

And the film of the crash is already on YouTube. I'm not sure we needed that.

 

[El Pistolero]

Cheap act from a seedy classless rider.

Ah yes, because you know if they told him the news right

Weggman also a cheap rider for trying to win now?

Weylandt fell, needed CPR, face disfigured, loads of blood... just transferred to nearest Hospital with heli

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Geox is slow

 

[thirteen]

Transferred to a hospital by helicopter now...

thank you for the updates... i'm listening but don't know why -- i still can't understand a word of dutch...

i just want him to be okay!

 

[Cobblestoned]

Sad story and sad coincidence that Wouter, replacement rider for Bennati (who had a terrible crash, too), crashed heavily today.

But that really looked even more serious.

 

[luckyboy]

Oh right, sounds terrible

 

[Jamsque]

Cavendish will lose his jersey today.

Major crash involving Weylandts. He has been airlifted to hospital. camera shots showed cpr being performed on him.

 

[balkou]

He is still being reanimated (15 minutes now) and they're waiting for the heli to land in the road... They had administered to him adrenaline and atropine. That's as bad as we all get it...

Really weird the race is going on. Nobody cares

 

[Descender]

Weylandt has NOT yet been evacuated, he's still on the road and still receiving a cardiac massage.

Ive already flagged as innapropriate. suggest others do the same.

 

[thrawn]

This is terrible

Dertie taking advantage of another riders misfortune to benefit himself.

 

[Hawkwood]

Weylandt has NOT yet been evacuated, he's still on the road and still receiving a cardiac massage.

I assume he has to be stabilised before they can fly him out. Shocking.

 

[Ramira]

Podium ceremony has been cancelled.

 

[The_Z_man]

I'm at work and can't watch it. If it's as bad as everyone is saying, they should neutralize the race. There is no reason to keep racing with something that horrific going on.

still receiving cardiac massage according to eurosport.

thats after 20 minutes. doesnt sound at all good.

 

[Jamsque]

Farrar had to change a wheel, he's probably out of it too. Another one for Petacchi?

Yes. I refused to post the link here.
