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.
