Van aert was just getting back to his top form after the crash from earlier this year and now this happens. I feel so bad for him. Hope he can come back in top shape next season.
i hope no big guns attend the giro and he gets a mircale breakaway like 20mins and somehow wins GC. Yes I am dreaming
This isn't good but he will be riding very little loss in term of shape. But yeah sad he could have win even more from this vuelty
@@user-qt5xh9mt7x Bottom feeder.
@@user-qt5xh9mt7x bruh why are you so angry. He clearly can steer bcs of his CX background, he even held his bike up unlike the other 2 others but then Crashed into the wall. Nothing he can do
@@user-qt5xh9mt7x I'm with you. He falls far too often since switching to road. This knee injury just like his spring crash are potentially career ending.
I really feel sorry for Wout....winning the points and mountain jersey in the same Grand Tour is a rare thing......I hope that he gets those big wins next year!!!!
he probably wouldnt won the kom.
@@sorenludwig3978 he had it pretty much secured after todays stage.
the competition at the Vuelta is third tier though.
@@riquelmeone double points jersey is still super rare, would've been great picking it up
@@Coldhardt007 it is indeed. but no one challenged him. van Aert is too scary for a lot of riders. Would have loved to see someone really battle it out with him
I was literally just watching the Eurosport highlights out of sheer desperation. This arrived right in time
the Eurosport recap is good, to be fair. Different and less analytic of course, but I like to watch it.
I was on vacation during TdF Femmes avec Zwift™️ and watched first Eurosport then Lanterne Rouge recap of each stage until the last, and I felt I got feel for what happened.
I'm gutted that WVA has crashed out of the race, he was making some good progress and always makes the race interesting with his ability to sprint, go for breaks and overall competitive style.
Shit Jayco riders fault
@@Slow.SmoothNot really. Downhill every rider knows what risk his willing to take. WvA was just not paying attention and wasn’t ready for a break. That’s why he wasn’t abel to have space to run out the street.
So devastating for Wout. Hope it’s not too serious and he heals up soon.
Van Aert was in such shining form 🥲 I wasn't able to continue watching the stage after his crash 😭
Same. I think I stopped breathing for a while.
I started watching after his crash. What a magnificient stage
Not really. I'm baffled none of the top gc guys even feel the urge to win ANY stages 🤔@@user-qt5xh9mt7x
Yeah I lost all interest in the race after he had to leave.
Sooo bumbed and honestly heartbroken for WvA! He brought so much joy to watching la Vuelta the last weeks. That was quickly gone today. So sad.
Hopefully on to a speedy recovery for Wout. And Visma needs to somehow get rid of this hunted bad luck, please!
Soler has been the kind of rider who can easily annoy half the peloton. He plays games, doesn´t ride well with others, attacks after missing turns pretending he can't colaborate with the break, and he just does it over and over again.
He maybe provides some entertainment for the fans, but I'm sure he doesn´t make too many friends in the peloton riding like that.
Wout is having such a bad year luck-wise. Of all the riders involved in that crash, Wout is the only one who couldn’t continue. Hoping his injuries are not too serious and a speedy recovery.
Poor Wout is not having the best of luck this year. I hope that there are no serious injuries with that knee, and that he can continue on with his season, although he looked to be in some serious pain when he stepped off.
So sad for WvA, especially after such amazing riding from him on the same stage! Was really hoping he might take both green and KoM, even if he beat Aussies doing it!
reading these comments.... Wout is truly beloved.
It's really hard to be a WVA fan this season. I feel so sorry for him. 🥲 The mental strength these guys need to get back in shape after crashes like this is incredible.
Wout van Heart of this race. ❤ I know there’s no way to know and really no use speculating, but I really think he had a good chance to win this stage and would have kept green and KOM, plus most combative. I know I know, maybe not. But I have to say something to make myself feel better.
Wout would have been likely to get most combative. Either him or Castrillo are the only people that really deserve it as things stand now.
Aussies currently hold the lead in all three senior classifications: O'Connor the GC, Groves the Points, and Vine the Mountains. Realistically O'Connor cannot hold the red jersey much longer but a podium finish for him and Groves and Vine keeping their jerseys is looking quite likely.
After such an abysmal year for FDJ, seeing Gaudu so good in this Vuelta is just amazing. I don't think he can get to a top 5 but what a performance
Most interesting rider out... hope he quickly recovers!
Poor Wout!!! Just when it looked like he would salvage his season with a good Vuelta!
Van Aert is one of my favorites. So sad to see him crash.
So sad for Wout. Visma are absolutely cursed this year.
No, the error is not in the stars but in ourselves
The management were dishonest last year vuelta w both vingegaard and roglic, determining second tier kuss wd win.
Resulting in a cheated roglic to leave team
Resulting in roglic winning vuelta for bora not visma
Great ride from Mas again today. He is attacking more in this Vuelta than all the previous put together!
And with how roglic is looking at the moment, he might well continue. Probably won't work in the end but only one bad day where the elastic snaps, everything can look a lot closer again
@@PHHE1Roglic looks great wdym
@@PHHE1 What the fuck are you talking about? There was not a single instance where Roglic got dropped by Mas in this Vuelta xD. Only a crash would prevent Roglic winning this GT with a 2 minutes lead in the end.
@@zigazdovc6175A few stages back Mas pulled 1 minute on roglic and other gc contenders, lost the gap in the descent after nearly crashing.
There is still 2 top finishes left, i feel like Mas can gap roglic
@@blackpaint9093 He's slovenian, when it comes to his compatriots he probably has blinders on.
I don't agree that Mas is likely to gap Roglic, but anything can happen if he continues to try.
Soler is 100% entertainment, well deserved victory today
Yea, always looking like he's about to fall off the bike, but still keeps going forward.
You are so good at this Lanterne Rouge!
I am literally in tears
wishing wout a fast recovery. such a fun rider to watch and so talented
Very unfortunate Wout , a superclass rider . I wish him a speedy recovery
Watched the full stage. Listened to the full podcast. Still watching this👌
Flashbacks to Remco abadoning the Giro one and a half years ago holding the top spot in two classifications, ironically the two Wout didn't have here.
That's only one and a half years ago right? 2023 if memory serves me
So gutted for Wout. Hope he gets well soon.
And Skelmose is moving up on the white jersey - jay!
O'Connor has been valiant for 11 days, but his time in red looks finally over. This Vuelta has been relentless with mountain after mountain after mountain. I'd love to see him finish on the podium as that would be reward for the effort he's put in to make this edition of the Vuelta much more interesting than it otherwise would have been.
WVA did a great vuelta. This abandon hopefully becomes a blessing in disguise, if he can focus on world championship to come!?
Feel so bad about WVA. Tough so see this happen to such a champion
WvA getting a free card from his team, guys like Sepp helping him out big time. Wout showing his gratitude for his team and delivering and then this happens. Gutted. I'm from BE, this hits even harder 😞
I am so upset by this. I know it’s no one’s fault but DAMN!!! Waut has such a F’d year. He and Mateu are my favorite
Definitely a tough day for Wout. Sorry to see him crash out.
Crushed for Wout. It was wonderful watching him have the greenlight to ride for himself (since GC just wasn't gonna happen for Visma this time). He was really showing why he is such a dynamic rider (and my personal favorite to watch). Such a shame. Thankfully it seems to be a flesh wound and not a fracture or structural (ligament etc.) so hopefully not a big rehab effort. Maybe we see him take a crack at some fall classics?
Damn, feeling it for Wout.
Sad to see Wout crash out like that, but on the other hand, I'm very happy to see Soler finally take a win.
Heartbreaking for Wout 😓
Flashback to 1990 when Lemond narrowed the time gap to Chiappucci down to 5 seconds. (before taking yellow in the final time trial)
I was so sure Roglic would crash in the last little descent with the rain etc
A race is just better with Wout in it..!
But don’t you just love Soler? Really pleased he got a stage.
so gutted for Wout, this guy is so unlucky this year :(
The Specter of Marc Soler 😅. He creeps back when you think he's done!
bro i could not believe it. he was just getting back in top form. i'm so sad now
I guessed that Soler was play acting and had such a laugh when turned out to be right 🤣
Great summary...love your vids! Feel so bad for Wout!
So happy for Soler. After all the days in the breakaway finally the bride and not the bridesmaid.
Ridiculous form to get in the break everyday and his madcap style never fails to entertain
For once the quantum entanglement of Soler’s bike collapsed and materialised on the front.
"T-Rex Quick-Step" 😂
well played, it's good for Redbull to keep a short distance on time to the red jersey, they don't have to pull nor control anything, they can chill a little and attack on the next mountain. pretty sure they are keeping that small gap these days until the weekend.
Im happy for Soler, de deserves a win.
was hoping enric mas could increase the pace again because roglic was barely hanging on but no dice unfortunately. im not optimistic that o'connor will be able to give us a great race for the top spot from here on out since he just doesn't have the same climbing prowess as roglic and mas. would be dope to see roglic and mas duking it out with a smaller time gap between them since now i think roglic will just be hanging on his wheel instead of having to go on the offensive. o'connor may still be in red, but if i'm roglic i'm more concerned about enric mas. once the road gets steep again, o'connor will probably be unable to sustain much resistance and will inevitably lose the 5 seconds he has on him.
super glad for marc soler - he's surely been working for it this vuelta!
Since Roglic left that team it seems like all the bad luck has spread to the rest of the guys… Cursed. So sad. I ride a modern disc brake bike myself, but this kind of lockup just doesn’t happen with rimbrakes… how do we stop these falls 😭
so unfortunate for van aert, as you pointed out not the best of seasons
Please wva not injured so badly can’t compete at worlds
Wouaaaa, Wout my man....! Not again !! 😢
Aert was doing so well-- such a shame
"Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose." -Roglic (birth-2024)
Man there is some black cat out there that really has it in for Wout, just coming back from his awful spring, maybe making history and getting 2 jerseys with a real shot at worlds, and boom....
Wout is a beast. This is a bummer.
Del toro went odds on favourite for the stage the second he handed over the glasses, yet he still finished behind Vine. Maybe the crash did have some effect on him.
O'Connor deserves a place on the podium,what a fighter.
Worst part about crashing like Wout is that it’s a skill issue. Brutal
Oh that’s shit for wout. I guess that confidence can get you into trouble once in a while. The flip side seems two Aussies take his jerseys. Aussies in Polka, green and red!
Noooooooo :(
WVA, injured again while doing so good.
Aussie riders are currently in all 3 of the main jerseys 🤯
Absolute disgrace!!
Not for long!😅
@@CompuWhizz Big change on Friday.
@@WilliamJeffs-vu7nr Suck it up mate
Damn, i really feel sorry for WvA :/
I think when Van Aert is in good shape, he takes too many risks. If the 2nd fall did not happen, it would be very interested to watch if he was able to win this stage.
Let’s celebrate our 3 Aussies holding leaders jerseys at a grand tour today. Can’t recall that ever happening before. 🎉
Hopefully not for long.
I wouldn’t want a green jersey after the guy who was kicking my arse gets taken out. Groves is class, especially with the way he did outsprint WvA those couple of times, and this isn’t his fault, but Id be a bit sheepish winning it this way.
If they have any respect for tradition they will decline to wear the jersey gifted them by Wout having to abandon
@@CompuWhizz Joop Zoetemelk said the same thing in 1980.
@@CompuWhizzprobably not so much the polka-dot, as Vine was doing well. As for the green, Groves was dead and buried.
Ah, wout😢😢😢😢😭
Feel so bad, gutted
I really hope Vine is able to stay upright and can take the polka dot jersey home, finally. He honestly deserves it after everything this year
WVA pulling the Primoz Roglic special this whole year. Unlucky.
taking one for the wrong team!
Devastating
If Wout ends his careers pharma stocks will dump 50%
Thanks Patrick , any word on Wout yet ?
When the team car was with hem, WvA said he felt like he was going to faint (which, I presume, is why they made him sit down in the trunk). Some time after an ambulance took him to the hospital. Almost sounds like something more serious is going on than just his knee. Or maybe it's bad thoughts haunting him, reminding of his hard crash early this year. I haven't see any more recent updates.
@@rschroev thank you very much
Message in Flemish mainstream media today: Wout is out for the rest of the season (so no EC, no WC). No fractures, but the wound needs to heal, and that takes time. He's in hospital now, where they're giving him antibiotics intravenously. After that Wout will take some rest and then will start gently preparing for the next season.
@@rschroev thank you very much
Beautiful
Wonder what would've happened if Wout hadn't been told to rejoin the group.
great recap
Oh Wout. Maybe we can get some good cyclocross battles this winter with MVDP
No! Worlds
Wout needs to put 2024 bike racing to bed and look forward to a fresh start in 2025, get well soon bud.
Such a hellish season for Visma 😢
So you are telling me there are still riders who believe Soler is actually suffering when he does his overly painful face?
Imagine wearing the KoM jersey, and being beaten out for points on it by... the GREEN jersey. WvA is wild. So sad for him, that crash is like the definition of bad luck.
Is this the first time ever that Aussies have held three jerseys in a GT? Just need the young rider.
2015 Peter Sagan was full of disappointments and crashed out of Vuelta that year. Everyone thought that's it until after a couple of weeks he won the Rainbow jersey at Richmond. And that started a chain of successful wins while wearing the rainbow jersey for the next 3 years. Is this going to be the start of the peak of WVA's career??
Well, until MVDP is there, I dont think so 😂😅
Mathieu is currently suffering from a knee injury and dropped out of the Renewi tour...
I hope it is. But I've always though of Sagan as a particular animal with regards to his setbacks at that time. He seemed to have as many self inflicted problems as crashes.
I like WvA. I hope he bounces back. This year is such a tough year for him (after a pretty good year last year....)
Thanks for that big white arrow because I couldn't see shit in that overhead shot.😊
I think that for a cyclocross rider, Wout simply crashes too often. I've often wondered why and I think that sometimes he's not concentrating enough. He's a very good technician and knows that the road is no challenge for him. He's more concentrated off-road. And on the road he's not challenged enough and then, in comparison, he's unfortunately too unconcentrated - that's my opinion!
Heartbreaker
Soler man, whatta machine
With how he looked in the other breakaways and how much energy he's already spent this race, I didn't think he had the form. Makes you realize how much goes into racing and pacing yourself like this for three weeks straight. I had hoped for a little more from Yates and Vine this race tbh
Do these races have any responsibility to keep the roads clean? Around that really nasty crash you can see leaves and dirt/mud on the tarmac. Seems like it would be a good idea to run a street sweeper through the course ahead of time for the safety of the riders. Hope Wout can make a speedy recovery!
Absolutely gutted for WVA.
Patrick, are you covering Tour of Britain??
i dont think he normally does as it overlaps with the vuelta and he works on that enough as it is - well, that and rights issues to use the broadcast footage, more pertinently...
Wout, exclusively, made the Vuelta most worthy of watching. I was upset to see this
Once again I come to you to blame overpowered disk brakes. Heal well, Wout.
Sadly, I think you're right. The brakes give you a lot of confidence descending in dry conditions, but then when it's wet they grab too hard and down you go. I've had it happen to me. Unfortunately, going back to rim brakes isn't the answer, because they can heat up and destroy a carbon rim on a long descent.
@@rlm4471 make better carbon wheels. Use aluminium rims with carbon inserts. There are plenty of solutions for this "problem". The bike industry just gave up on improving technology for rim brakes. 2 years ago Pogacar was still alternating between disc and rim brake in TDF stages.
@@rlm4471 aluminium rims?
@@ManWalksDogs exactly. Shimano's carbons rims were alum brake surfaces with carbon bonded fins for aero. The bike industry just abandoned tech advancements in rim brake for the fancy (and expensive) alternative. Nonetheless, Pogacar was still alternating between rim and disc on TdF 2 years ago. Good thing we still have the Chinese. There are plenty of reviews here on YT showing that Winspace Hyper's braking performance is outstanding in any environment and replacement cost is comparable to replacement costs of rotosr and pads for the same timeframe.
@sgameirojr Bonding carbon and aluminum is not a viable approach, because they have different rates of thermal expansion, so the carbon tends to crack.
I love to know what they are feeding their riders on .
Haven’t felt so sorry for someone in sport in a long, long time. Bossing the stage and owning two jerseys and then that agony.
His knee is really shredded, really bad luck…
20 years ago people were going in the break 2-3 times per tour, and they were doping. Today, they are in the break daily, but supposedly not doping. LOL.
visma is just cursed bro poor wout I am not a big fan of him but this just hurts to watch
