168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Tadej Pogačar has lost a vital teammate as he targets overall victory at the UAE Tour, with sprinter 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Sebastian Molano forced to quit the race after his 𒐪high-speed crash during stage 1.
Illness has also hit the Visma-Lease a Bike team with sprinter 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Olav Kooij pulling out of the UAE Tour before Tuesday's time 🤡trial, with domestique Julien Vermote leaving the race after just a stage.
Molano crashed in the final ten kilometres of the stage when he was sat on Pogačar's wheel. Molano only had one hand on the handlebars at the time as he took a drink, with his team saying he hit a cat eye in the road.
Molano landed heavily in the central reservation of the wide road but managed to get up and finish the stage. However, UAE T🤡eam Emirates-XRG said he would not start Tuesday's time trial d💞ue to his injuries.
"A𝓰 follow-up revision reveꦜaled a badly sprained ankle and due to the heavy swelling and discomfort we took the decision it was best for him not to start," Dr. Adrian Rotunno said.
"He will 𓆏now travel home for further rest and monitoring."
Kooij was expected to fight for victory in the four expected sprint finishes. He won two stages at the recent🌠 Tour of Oman after working well with new ♚leadout man Dan McClay.
Kooij was dropped 30km from the finish of stage 1 and so did not challenge Jonatha🍰n Milan and finished 15 m꧃inutes down on the Italian.
"We knew in advance that he did not feel fit, so the main thing 🅘was to survive this stage," directeur sportif Jesper Mørkøv said.
Visma-Lease a Bike announced Kooij would not continue in the U🅘AE Tour before Tuesday's time trial, without revealing the exact nature of his illness.
"Unfortunately, Olav Kooij will be leaving the UAE Tour. He has not been feeling well for a few days and needs time to recover. Heal well, Olav! See you soon!" the team said 🎃on social ﷽media.
Visma-Lease a Bike now have just five riders in the UAE Tour, with 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Thomas Gloag perhaps their bestও hope for success on the mountain finishes.
