Gilbert: Missing Milan-San Remo is a precautionary measure
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Philippe Gilbert (BMC) says that missing this weekend’s Milan-San Remo is a precautionary measure. Gilbert fell ill with a respiratory infection just before the start of 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Paris-Nice, and while he🎶 started the 💫race he eventually abandoned following stage 2.
Gilbert has not fully recovered and has decided that it ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚw꧃ould be better for the remainder of his Classics campaign to skip the first Monument.
"Overall, I feel okay, but the breath test proved that I'm not 100 per cent," Gilbert told Lacapitale.be. "There is the danger that if I force it, I will comp✃romise the other Spring Classics. So I agreed with the advice of the team doctor."
Gilbert is also set to miss the Tour of Flanders, according to the article, but the race was never on his schedule. Greg Van Avermaet, who recently won the overall classification at Tirreno-Adriatico, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:will lead the BMC team at Milaꦐn-San Remo.

LottoNL-Jumbo admit to Leezer timing error
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Tom Leezer's fifth place performance in the final Tirreno-Adriatico time trial was one of the surprises of the day. His result was equally as surprising to his 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:LottoNL-Jumbo directeur sportifs, who had timed his run as slower than ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚthat of his teammate Maarten Tjallingii.
They could have easily accepted the re♎sult and moved on but the team decided to call the jury and point the error out.
"I foll𓄧owed Tom during his time trial and I measured a time that was 20 seconds slower than 𓆉Maarten Tjallingii's," said directeur sportif Jan Boven. "Because we want the sport to be as fair as possible, we called the jury to say that the result was incorrect."
After the correction, Leezer moved from fifth place down to 103rd, over a minute do🦄wn on the stage winner Fabian Cဣancellara.
