Remco Evenepoel: “I hope everybody recovers well.”

June 6 ^th 2024 - 15:40

“Overall it’s OK, I crashed on the right and I crashed on my head as well, the helmet saved me today. There are guys in a worse situation and I wish everybody a good recovery. Now it’s all to tomorrow and not focus too much on what happened. My shoulder is bleeding and we’ll have to see what the doctors will say,  if the plate is OK.  We’ll see tomorrow, but there’s no other option but continue. Everybody was fighting for position as it was the last tricky point of the course. Some guys started to slide just in front of me. I was close to make it but a bike went under me and I went overhead as it caught my wheel. It was a bit unlucky. The riders at the front started to slide, which was odd as it was not a real corner, but it was really slippery. I hope everybody recovers well.”
