The “Fair Play” of the rivals of Tadej Pogacar
The Slovenian got up quickly, but lost valuable time by having to rearrange his bicycle and retail the jersey, visibly torn.
In a sports sample, its main rivals – Jonas Vingegaard, Remco Evenepoel and the rest of the favorites – decided not to take advantage of the situation and neutralized the rhythm of the group to allow him to return without wasting time in the general.
Thanks to this collective gesture, Pogacar managed to link again with the head group before the final kilometer. Despite visible bruises, especially in the shoulder, he crossed the goal without showing signs of severe pain, although he was seen something tense during the last meters.
“Pogacar is fine”
The UAE later reported that it does not present seriously injuries, although it will be evaluated again before stage 12.
The fall not only altered the tactical development of the day, but also confirmed the respect that Pogacar imposes among his rivals. In a tour marked by fierce competition, the fact that Vingegaard and Evenepoel wait for the Slovenian underlines the ethical code that still survives in high -level cycling.
The great unknown now is whether the coup will have accumulated physical consequences in the high mountain stages that are coming.
