168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Tim Wellens was perhaps the only rider who enjoyed the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:fifth stage of the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Tour of Poland, as the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lotto Soudal rider won from a breakaway to move into the yellow jersey in cold, rainy wea♋ther which saw mass abandons from ✃the WorldTour stage race.

"I don't know how many riders are still in the race but I think everybody suffered today and they say that tomorrow there will be a lot of rain again. Normally ꦏI like the rain, I li𝓰ke to race in it but today was really cold so, we will see how it is tomorrow; but I have a good advantage and we have a good team and we will do our best to keep the lead," Wellens said after taking his third win of the 2016 season.

While Wellens and Lotto Soudal celebrated a good day out in the rain, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Etixx-QuickStep had a particularly tough day with six riders recording a DNF against their name, including two-time stage winner and race leader 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Fernando Gaviria, and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Bob Jungels who crashed out while in the race w�🎶�inning breakaway.

"Manuel [Quinziato] suffered a right shoulder injury in the crash and he is going to fly to Madrid to undergo diagnostic testing on Monday. In the same crash [Danilo] Wyss suffered a small shoulder injury and [Loiಞc] Velits also went down so they also eventually stopped racing. Vleigen was suffering from gastrointestinal issues during the race aggravated by the difficult weather conditions and it was also in his best interest to stop racing," Zaccaria said.
