Looks like Sagan has "blown himself up", as was to be expected  

 

Ah, a mechanical problem. Well anyway, it's not like it would be completely realistic for him to fight for the medals until the end  (though it would of course be cool)

puncture for Safan...pitty . but he showed that he can

[heywoodu 16,074]

Van Houts broke his shifter and is out. Not like he would have had any chance anyway

Lombard, ouch

Sagan in 1.5km from 28th to 20th. Nice to see that he didn´t gave up . true champion

 

so pity for this puncture, it would be a total crazy result

[hckošice 15,665]

looks in next lap he had again some technical problems oh well now its a cruel disappointment...we didn´t expected such great result, but I really wanted that he will enjoy his race but now it looks like a total disaster for him

[hckošice 15,665]

and another mechanical problems...oh dear

Schurter! Finally Olympic gold

Bronze for Coloma, nice!

so sad was this interview with Sagan in our tv. Peter explained his 2 flat tyres..especially the second when he was in his chasing race and he was 11th !!! but suddenly once again he got a puncture in the middle of the lap, he had to run the downhills he look so disappointed 

 

well, the good thing is that I think no one can say absolutely nothing about his participation here. He did everything and was in the top 3 after 1st lap starting from the last grid !!! but this time mechanical problems decided...

 

Anyway congrats to Schurter absolute boss of the MTB also medal for Congrats and grats to Spain for the bronze as well ofc
