I'd suggest you wait until things have settled down with napping.

As soon as I saw the front go through that turn I knew there'd be a crash - stupidly dangerous set up.

 

[CyclistAbi]

First crash, really nicely done UCI!

I mean the woe-is-me every time him getting dropped is mentioned has been going on ever since he came back.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

I'm hoping Perez gets to wear the polka dots this time around.
