Wow, that crash took out a lot of big guns. Pedersen, Stuyven, Girmay, WvA...WvAs chance for a successful spring campaign probably out the window

[maquisard]

Really sad. It looks bad enough to end his spring campaign and build up to Giro. I expect it means we will see WvA in the TdF instead of the Giro? This is not his year really.

Flanders and Roubaix might be very boring now.

Really can't believe his luck. It'll all be on Jorgenson now. What a dream signing

WVA.. collerbone.. bummer man

Jorgenson seems like he is in an amazing form at the moment. Perhaps this is his Vingegaard moment when the support rider becomes the leader. I could see Jorgenson winning a classic this year.

I do wonder how good Jorgenson would be today if he hadn't spent the previous four years of his career at Movistar.

Good point, but glad he’s there now! I think this latest crop of American riders have been the most promising in years.

Time to drag Will Barta away from there as well? Still showed some promise with that breakaway win earlier this year in Valencia.

Very very sad for all involved.
Really feel sorry for WVA, he has had loads of bad luck the last few years.
And also with Stuyven out and Pedersen road rashed, RVV is kinda decapitaded...

He's a driven, performance-oriented rider who took it upon himself to improve, so I think he might not have left too much on the table (and in fact, his talent was eventually spotted). I hope that Lazkano makes a similar move as soon as possible.

Other than Jorgenson, I worry about other young talented riders who may rely much more on Movistar's training / diet / general performance techniques - but then again, isn't that the case for many riders who ride for smaller teams..

That'll keep you awake at night

Terrible few days. Now, Arnaud De Lie is diagnosed with Lyme Disease. I hope the treatment has improved enough that he can be back to 100% this season.

Is there any info on how the QS team car / medical car crash happened? Photos of the wreckage looks like they we must have going rather rapidly at the time...

I passed by the place of the accident during my lunch brake today (I live two streets from the place).
Going from how the place looks right now, it looks to me like the car did the same type of crash that killed Bjorg Lambrecht, but in a car (sorry, easiest way to describe for me in another language...)
