Lesser known races 2023 edition

[Ilmaestro99]

Looks like lazkano crashes in the sweeping left bend over the bridge at 700m to go when the stream frozen. And ajuso crashed 2 corners later

 

[Pinot's goat]

Lazkano crashed before Ayuso however the coverage froze a little before going past him so it was hard to see as it was far ahead of the camera at the time and slightly around the corner.

Marc Hirschi‘s voodoo and mind control powers are incredible.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Hilariously that's Hirschi's 5th win of the season after a serious crash in Alvarge.

29th in the UCI rankings this season and if you weren't watching random midweek races you would think the guy had vanished.

10th in Liege probably his most high profile result

Ayuso's Vuelta dream could be over because this stupid crash...

That doesn't look good at all does it, holding his arm in that position

The way he is holding it, makes a broken collarbone almost the best possible outcome.

There is a new video where Ayuso stands up with his left arm after the crash. That doesn´t look that bad..

 

[Landeirovic]

Ayuso collarbone

 

[Valv.Piti]

Did he crash over the finish lane or what the frick happened? I saw he finished 3rd.

Hopefully nothing too serious....

Ayuso could not have gone any slower around the corner - They were treacherous conditions.

 

[Didinho]

Hopefully nothing too serious....

He was in front with Lazkano, who crashed a couple corners before him. So he was on his way to the win, about 300-500m to go.

 

[Valv.Piti]

My god, what are the odds

FFS, this was without a doubt the rider I had looked forward to the most in La Vuelta

He gave an interview smiling after the race. Can anyone translate?

He went into that corner so badly.

 

[Didinho]

He went into that corner so badly.

Looks like he slipped on that manhole cover.

 

[Valv.Piti]

Very fast on his feet and judging by the crash, definitely not a collarbone.

Good to go

Plappers has the 12th best time at the intermediate, out of 16 riders that have passed so far.

Good, just as expected.

 

[RedheadDane]

So... I see Ben was the swiftest so far in Wallonie.

 

[DNP-Old]

Joshy T time. Hopefully in white shorts.

 

[DNP-Old]

Project white shorts is a fail.
