He came close to another victory today. And he really mastered the tuck descending so it will be shame when it gets banned.

I'd say today was a pretty good argument against the banning of the supertuck. He did just fine for years, supertucking away. Then they banned it, and what does he do? He crashes!
Please note that I am only partly serious, but it is ironic that one of the most prolific supertuckers in the peloton has a serious crash after the supertuck got banned.
It has nothing to do with the supertuck. Supertuck yes or no, crashes will always be there. We on this forum know this, the UCI apparently doesn't.

For a super skilled bike handler, and a phenomenal descender, Mohorič crashes a lot. Probably because of his riding always on the limit, almost reckless at times. It's a big shame. It feels like every time he is coming into form, something happens to him. Hopefully he is fully recovered in a couple of weeks.

1. Exactly. So why ban it?

2. He crashes a lot? I sure hadn't noticed.

Nice and hard race today at nationals road race. Congrats for taking the title. Bahrain and UAE really made the race into a thriller. At one point Mohorič was already behind and it all looked like the race is lost for him. Still he managed to bounce back and take the win.

Chapeau!

He is a diesel. You just can't get rid of him. He's always coming back, be it on the descent or on the false flat. Nice win!
