As participants of the everybody involved in that event, during the actual circumstances with #Covid_19, have and had to make big sacrifices. It is simple to keep this event going- respect the rules-keep the distance to us riders and wear masks, PLEASE.

My apology go out to and as I have had not the right to make that tweet based on GPS time, which can be wrong, plus I got the incorrect times he lost on the last hill. I’m sorry. Lesson learned: don’t tweet about sth you are not part off.

Whoever designed today’s stage should try to ride with 180 riders on a twisty 5m wide road next to each other and pushing Wachbootes to the limits. Of course we riders make the race at the end but the riders also ask for an earlier time taking 5 km to go which was refused

A clear example of unfair behavior…n my opinion there should be a rule not to have the last two sprints counting as it was a clear assault from Lampaert to take out Wellens for the sprints.

This stinks - UCI rules need a clause that leads not only to DSQ for a move like Lampaert’s but also to a penalty for an individual who benefits from unfair actions of a teammate. It’s a team sport.

What a shame for all commissars who were part of the decision of the U23 winner and disqualified him after he won the world champ title fair and strong. No words for that-by the way-other rides who used bike paths etc getting dsq straight away.

nothing more to say about that decision of the jury-when you do your sprint you keep a line-I have no eyes in my back and I don’t let myself get pushed out of the way from nobody-hard to accept to get already robbed for the stage win and now the commissaries even take away 2nd???

What a nice parcour it is…strange feeling to look at the stages knowing that I won’t be there anymore…ok I confess I am also happy that I won’t be there during the hilly days

I don’t know what is more painful...the cold feet/hands while riding in the cold or the in shower feeling when hands and feet warming up again....

1. I am really suprised how quite it is between the riders in the bunch about the first decent in stage 4. This was disrespectful towards all riders from the Organisation. Risking the health just to reach the end of the downhill-result: 2 potential GC contenders out.

where is the point to let riders of a World Tour team, racing against U23 elite riders? You are destroying your own U23 class system and riders who are following a federation system aren’t even at the start line because the pro riders -23 years are taking there spots

Another year being selected for the biggest race on earth is a pleasure but also connected to lots of pain...I will enjoy it and fight together with the @Lotto_Soudal for the best possible results....
