Vuelta a España Vuelta a España 2023, stage 7: Utiel - Oliva, 200.8k

And Kuss is stuck behind the crash too.

 

[Salvarani]

Arensman, does not look good.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Normally you have less crashes in weaker sprint fields... not this Vuelta. What a horror show.

Kuss now paying for riding at the back all day, too much alcohol yesterday!

 

[Netserk]

Kuss crashed pretty softly. It was because Rogla cut in front of an Ag2r rider who braked, after which the Jayco rider hit his rear wheel and crashed.

 

[Salvarani]

Arensman hit his face/head.

People: How can we make cycling safer?
UCI: Make them start on safe wide roads, but let's make the part where they go fastest full of obsticles and turns.

It's never good when you can see the blood on the road, I did see Arensman move a bit at least.

Neither of these crashes had much to do with the route.

'tis the calm before the final 6k where all hell breaks loose and we see multiple race ending crashes including the end of GC G's GC hopes.

'twas supposed to jinx the possibility of this happening...

 

[Volderke]

It's over for Arensman. I hope he isn't hurt too bad.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Arensman looking really bad after the crash

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

Feel bad for Arensman, didn’t look good in the slightest.

 

[postmanhat]

IWG with biblical levels of faith in Page

 

[Volderke]

Is it Ganna happen?
No good lead out (Ghys caused the crash) for Alpecin, and UAE doesn't seem to go full for Molano's lead out...

 

[Didinho]

Good camera work.

 

[glassmoon]

*** final 200m coverage... ffs

 

[Salvarani]

Soupe!!!

 

[Samamba]

Full on joke this

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Weakest sprint podium ever in a GT, worst camera work ever in a GT.

 

[Volderke]

Soupe! Excellent coverage by the TV director!

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Groves - not winning today

 

[glassmoon]

amateurish GT...

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

Worst sprint podium I’ve ever seen, congrats to Soupe I suppose.

 

[Salvarani]

What a win for Total and Soupe.
