UAE-Team Emirates thread

[Cycling111]

You're not comparing like with like: none of them are shown as recent additions to the startlist, and the selection is not marked as being confirmed.

It doesn't matter. PCS on Bjerg's profile memtions that he has a fractured hand. The two things are incompatible; if he has a fractured hand, he can't be in that race. Unless it's allowed for him to fake participation and he will abandon at kilometer 1, it would be an absurd rule.

Current injuries​

• Out with acromioclavicular luxation, fractured hand

PCS shows him as having been added to the CEGORR in the last couple of hours. Who to believe?

Laengen too...

It is an interesting case tho, as you need to start with 5 to race, but they have 3 injured riders. Maybe Bjerg is still there to sign in at the start so they can actually participate

Sacrificing the Scandis!

Jay Vine also broken, needs surgery, UAE has to be asking what was the real cost of winning the Tour Down Under.. Yikes

That's making it sound very dramatic...
