[Netserk]

Camera bike taking De Lie down while he was surfing the caravan.

EDIT: Nope, he slid in a corner.

Wasn't the camera bike

 

[Samamba]

Just his own fault

So dumb.

 

[Salvarani]

De Lie is, of course, pretty furious.

 

[Berniece]

He should've stepped back on his bike, but I get that the stress combined with another set back so quickly might brought him too down.

De Lie is, of course, pretty furious.

His mastery of Dutch curse words is already pretty good. Referring to this race as a "kutkoers". A sh.t race.

 

[Bolder]

Ouchie for de Lie.

Good to know! He was pretty worked up...

 

[postmanhat]

Thought was Gachignard for Total. Didn't look anything like Van Gestel.

 

[theyoungest]

Good to know! He was pretty worked up...

He said something like "wat moet ik doen in deze kutkoers". What am I doing in this sh.t race.

 

[Samamba]

Ok time to stop showing De Lie, he's done.

 

[Netserk]

He's out.

 

[Didinho]

DNF

 

[Salvarani]

De Lie at own fault there. Came too fast into that corner trying to over-take the cars.

 

[postmanhat]

Poor backmarkers. For five minutes, they thought he was going to drag them back into the race.

 

[Andre]

...damn it..I was cheering for him to win

This race is an absolute snoozefest, De Lie losing his sh*t after his crash was peak entertainment.

 

[Samamba]

This race is an absolute snooze fest

Yeah it's horrible. It's a bit of an overrated race anyways. It's awesome when there's wind and rain, or a team that can absolute dynamite this race (like QS in the past, or Lotto sometimes), but that isn't the case this time so it's just boring and probably a sprint.

And now without De Lie all the big teams think they can win in a sprint.

 

[theyoungest]

Wow, De Lie wasn't wrong. This race is total carnage, and not in the right way.

 

[DNP-Old]

Le Samyn is a different cookie than Woosh for Vink.

 

[Netserk]

25-30 riders in the bunch after the crash.

 

[Netserk]

Bittner with a puncture.

 

[Netserk]

Pithie!

 

[DNP-Old]

Morgado still there, but seems to be more concerned about Hodeg than his own.

 

[Netserk]

Hodeg dropped.
