Vuelta a España 2019 stage 14: San Vicente De La Barquera - Oviedo > 188km

Tissot's website is more definitive than the Vuelta's own site?

That's crazy why would Quintana lose any time because of that. A real slap in the face if they don't give him the same time as others.

Tissot is the official timekeeper of the race. As long as they have no final result, neither has the Vuelta

Didn't know that: thanks.

Are all appeals done if Tissot have published?

And now Tissot have published, Quintana, and anyone else who had not otherwise lost time on the stage, given same time as Bennett.

It is of no relevance to the race, but crazy that those who finished well behind without crashing get the same time as Bennett.

So much for the clause of the relevant rule that says "his will of remaining with the riders in whose company he was riding at the moment of the incident."

Movistar has confirmed Quitana doesn't lose any time. Translated:
"After a complex review of the judges, due to the large number of runners affected, @NairoQuinCo has received the same time as the winner of the Oviedo stage in # LaVuelta19. It will continue 5th overall, 3'33 "from Primoz Roglic (TJV)."

Outstanding performance by Bennett. Completely destroyed the Steppers effort.

Valverde said his wrist hurts a little, but he thinks it's fine and that he just wanted to go to the hotel and give himself as much time as possible to recover from it. He did say he doesn't think it will affect him. Fingers crossed there is no last consequences of the crash.

Bennett when he wins anyway

note that it was not "Sam Bennett" but "San Bennett" in Catedral of Oviedo...
"Saint Bennett in Cathedral..."
well, maybe my joke was not funny ...
