  1. What the hell is going on? Is it low friction tyres!?. Is it Disc brakes? This never used to happen well never to this extent!!. Something is wrong that's for sure!.

  2. "Roglic going down" well, what a surprise, he goes down every time he races. On this particular day, however, it's fair to stop racing, terrible conditions.

  3. Too many crashes in professional racing. It's a terrible spectacle and no fun to watch. High-profile wheels + slick tires, a great combination to go really fast but terrible in terms of safety (especially on rainy days). Thus all these crashes nowadays. Something has to be done IMHO. Crashes benefit no-one: not the viewers who have spent money on a TV subscription only to have the race neutralized, not the racers, who may miss the entire cycling season after breaking a bone, not the organizers whose sponsors can't be happy, not the teams who have invested millions in their champions only to have no returns after a crash, not the local authorities who pay the organization to have a bicycle race not a motorcade.
    Wheels and tires need to be changed to give better grip and more compliance, less rigidity.

  4. What BS. The fact that they still rode to the finish shows that it could've been riden. It is called racing! It's the riders decision to how fast to go. Too slick, slow down.

  5. Questo son professionisti.. hai voluto i dischi???? Frena con i piedi😂😂🚴‍♀️😂🚴‍♀️🚴‍♀️😂😂🚴‍♀️😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

  6. Something has to give. Either there is something not safe with the tires, brakes or general technology or riders need to sort out their bike handling skills. It is getting to be beyond a joke. Rain has always been a reality in pro racing, never have they had to neutralise a race off the back of what are some quite mild conditions.
