💔 Tanto trabajo y esfuerzo para que todo acabe asÃ... 😓 Asà quedó Jay Vine tras una caÃda que le deja fuera de la pelea por los puestos nobles de la contrarreloj. #Zurich2024 | #LaCasadelCiclismo
🎥 Unhappy Jay Vine badly hurt due to crash after heading for possible medal
CyclingSunday, 22 September 2024 at 20:07
Jay Vine seemed to be on track to be the surprise of the day at the World Time Trial Championships in Zurich, but after a crash on the descent, he lost a lot of time and also suffered the necessary physical damage. The Australian miraculously finished fifth.
While Vine didn't impress during his first participation in the World Time Trial Championships with 28th place, he did much better this year. After a good time at the first intermediate point, he was especially impressed at the second. It was a tricky uphill section, and the UAE Team Emirates rider made a big difference compared to many others.
A medal even seemed on the horizon until, at point three, it appeared that Vine had suddenly lost a lot of time. Was it because of the descent? After all, the rounder might not be known as the best downhill rider. However, it turned out to be a crash. Although the footage was initially missing, it was revealed when Vine came into view of the cameras at the finish line. The rider was severely bruised, especially on the shoulder and face. At the moment, it is not clear exactly how Vine is affected.

Vine can't often show his immense talent due to many crashes
For Vine, it is yet another painful encounter with the asphalt. The Australian crashes regularly, often with severe consequences. After his famous crash at the Tour of the Basque Country this year, he had to rehabilitate for a long time. In August, he returned to the race at the Tour of Burgos and immediately won the time trial. It marks his immense talent, but unfortunately, it is often severely limited by the necessary crashes...

- Van Aert is really handsome. He can influence me all day! Ditto for Philipsen. Why do you think many of us love cycling?: to see heroic attempts at climbing mountains at high altitudes or to watch speedsters sprint for the finish line or to watch a human being ride at break neck speed down a tricky descent? No, it's all about their lean physiques and muscular legs. (apologies for objectifying these dedicated and amazing athletes).BarwonHeadsUp25-10-2024
- It is unfortunate that the author can't feel the joy that Pogacar brings to the sport and his fans who are legion and I for one feel lucky to have watched such a memorable performance and historic season From the Strada until yesterday with multiple wins in stages in both tours and beyond dominance in the World's. He is proud to wear the Rainbow stripes, shows his leadership to protect his fellows and is as courteous and sportsman-like as the sport allows. He goes early to not have to respond to each attack as all the rest would make him do it. Any racer who could would do the same. Don't "grow tired" of greatness as it is always fleeting.ccrider13-10-2024
- What load of rubbish. Pog is likely a once in a generation cyclist, the like of which hasn't been seen since 'the Cannibal '. How many people were complaining that Merckx was making racing predictable? I remember this year's World RR as one of the most exciting I've watched. Mainly BECAUSE Pog was the favourite and launched what everyone thought (Pog included) was a suicidal attack with 80km to go. For the next 2 hours, I was on the edge of my seat thinking "this is too much, even for Pog". Maybe Zonnefeld prefers the snooze-fest that is a bunch sprint? Like most people I know, I can't watch two hours of the bunch riding very fast... I wait for the final 5km and watch just the sprint. In any event, most races are won from a sprint or lone break. What difference does it make who makes the lone break? Ultimately, the other contenders will have to figure out a way to beat Pog. Even if that means collaboration between teams. It's going to be an exciting few seasons, until the next Pog arrives on the scene. If this is boring, heaven knows what exciting looks like!Michael513-10-2024
- This is not a gravel race. UCI fail, from the surface they are on to team tactics. In what country was the first "gravel race" in what country is the most popular gravel race? Go with the race model that created the discipline.
Barnes127411-10-2024 - And don't forget he has now won 4 of the big 10 races (Grand tours, Monuments and WC/OG) in one year with a chance to make that 5. (5 has only been done once before)Joostmehrtens05-10-2024
