Romain Bardet se convirtió en uno de los héroes de la Lieja-Bastoña-Lieja no por su actuación deportiva, ya que no terminó la carrera, pero sí por evitar una desgracia tras la montonera masiva que se produjo a 62 kilómetros de meta tras socorrer al campeón del mundo Julian Alaphilippe, que quedó tendido en la cuneta a causa de la caída. Una acción que le ha valido el reconocimiento de todo el pelotón por su nobleza.
Romain Bardet stressed any cyclist in his position would have done the same after the Frenchman was widely praised for sacrificing his own Liege-Bastogne-Liege chances to help the injured Julian Alaphilippe. A huge crash on Sunday saw Alaphilippe (Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl) among the injured riders, suffering two broken ribs, a fractured shoulder blade and a collapsed lung after hitting a tree and ending up in a ditch.
Romain Bardet (Team DSM) sacrificed his own race to check on fellow Frenchman Julian Alaphilippe (Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl) after a huge crash at Liege-Bastogne-Liege. Alaphilippe was among a spate of riders taken out in a big crash with 59.4km remaining on the run back to Liege, with the Frenchman hitting a tree and ending up in a ditch. Ad/> Such was his plight, rival Bardet decided to give up the pursuit of those not caught up in the crash and wander down the steep grass verge to check on his compatriot.
Julian Alaphilippe (Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl) was taken to hospital after crashing into a tree at Liege-Bastogne-Liege. The Frenchman, who had made no secret of targeting the Ardennes classics, went down in a big pile-up with 60km remaining of the Belgian Monument.
Just 24 hours after turning the air blue when seeing victory snatched from him, Thibaut Pinot (Groupama FDJ) ended a long barren run to secure victory on Stage 5 of the Tour of the Alps — as his fellow Frenchman Romain Bardet (DSM) took GC glory. Pinot has been striving for fitness and form following a torrid couple of years. He thought victory was his on Thursday, only to be overhauled by Miguel Angel Lopez (Astana Qazaqstan) in the final kilometre.
acogió en la pasada Vuelta la última gran actuación de Miguel Ángel López. Desde ese momento, el colombiano ha dejado tras de sí una densa sombra de dudas y malas actuaciones, incluido su sonado cuando marchaba tercero de la general. «Quería que me echaran», confesó después Superman en la tercera temporada del documental 'El día menos pensado'.
