And now De Lie crashed hard. Not looking good at all.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

De Lie down and probably out too.

 

[Bolder]

Screaming in pain. Hope it's not too bad.

 

[Bolder]

Wait, he's up?

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Ballerini, Trentin, Turner, Theuns and Van Gestel have pushed on up front. Not sure who will ride for a sprint now, then again the gap is only 42 seconds at 38k to go.

Those pro cyclists really aren't made of chocolate.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

The asphalt is worse than the cobbles in Wallonia...

 

[Samamba]

Wait, he's up?

DNF now.
If it's bad, Lotto's hope to stay in the WT are completely gone.

 

[Samamba]

Did Movistar pay off the guy on the motorbike lol what is this

 

[roundabout]

Bakelants did it.

First win in 6 years too.

 

[Samamba]

Jantje fing Bakelants can still win. Great!

 

[Bolder]

Cheeky win

 

[yaco]

DNF now.
If it's bad, Lotto's hope to stay in the WT are completely gone.

Lotto got 70 points from an anonymous ride by Maxim Van Gils.

So what? If De Lie is actually injured they literally have 0 chance.

 

[Samamba]

Both Girmay and De Lie are somewhat ok luckily.

I doubt De Lie will be the difference between relegation.

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

I doubt De Lie will be the difference between relegation.

He’s the reason Lotto is even close this year.

"I broke my back in 2017 in Lombardy, I didn't have a team and nobody believed in me anymore. I've got three kids, they see Wout (Van Aert, his trainingbuddy) nearly every week and they wonder why he wins all those great races and daddy doesn't even tho I train like him."

Quote from a very emotional Bakelants after his stage win.

That's not just a kid thing, I also wonder why he keeps winning almost everything

Great to see Jantje win tho, well deserved.

Yes - But he's a neo-pro and can only ride in so many races.
