Hasn't done an ITT since the National Championships last year where he was... 19th! Yay Russians coming out of the blue This brings back reminders of Folivorov who destroyed everyone (except for Kruijswijk, who had nearly the same time) in the mountain time trial in last year's Giro http://www.procyclingstats.com/race.php?id=163685 If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

The fact that UCI is going against their own rules concerning the bike change. Bikes can only come of the following car after it stopped, while here they have bikes waiting at the red carpet. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heywoodu 13,560 Posted September 20, 2017 #57 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Yves Lampaerts is not going to change bikes, "because I have a lack of cyclo-cross skills" Victor Campenaerts will stick to the plan and change.

heywoodu 13,560 Posted September 20, 2017 #59 Share Posted September 20, 2017 This changing seems better than letting a car stop by the way. Much easier for everyone, no obstructing of other riders or anything, less manouevering from cars and so on.

So it's an exception, which hosts are allowed to make --> not a breaking of laws If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!
