loving hell and with a train track on the other side of the barrier https://twitter.com/sport_tvppl/status/1291058716129861635 quote:Unofficial information from #tvpsport reporter Sebastian Szczęsny: Jakobsen received muscle relaxants, was put into a pharmacological coma and intubated. The cyclist was taken to hospital, his condition was serious. # TDP20 Sounds really bad

After van Aert's crash last year its obvious those typical crowd control barriers aren't suitable for bike racing, especially when things are heated or narrow Can't access the apparent source, but read that they were able to intubate Jakobsen and his blood oxygen saturation levels were good, but he lost a lot of blood and has serious craniocerebral trauma.

Since all the previous stuff sounded really bad thought it would be worth updating with more recent news which is a bit better https://sport.tvp.pl/49285887/stan-stabilny-ale-ciezki-najwazniejsze-godziny-fabio-jakobsena "The doctor also gave the first good news. -It is optimistic that apart from craniofacial injuries, no changes were found radiologically in the remaining organs. The general condition is stable, but we have to wait for the next hours to assess the neurological status. The measures he is given do not allow a complete assessment of the degree of damage. I think we will be able to provide full information in the morning ." Terrible still but hopefully not immediately life-threatening anymore

In the fan video, you can see that Jakobsen loses his helmet after hitting the first set of barriers, before he hits the finish arch (or ground). cebrail posted:I think they had that same road in a previous TdP and it’s insane that they’re still having it.

Groenewegen's had surgery on a collarbone he broke after falling over the line. He wouldn't be racing for a few months anyway.

He could be fine, I know a fella who rode right into the back of a parked hatchback and put his face through the window. It took a couple years yeah, but you can't see anything today.

He's got to have picked up a concussion from stopping that fast. cgfreak posted:sporza is reporting that he does not have any spinal, cranial or cerebral injuries, which kind of seems like a miracle but I'll take it. The initial report above sounded like a cat scan looking for structural issues, like brain bleed, etc. Plenty of possible TBI issues that wouldn't be picked up on a scan.

peanut- posted:drat, if there's one thing everyone wanted from MSR it's for there to be even more of it. For what it's worth, they didn't make it longer for shits and giggles. (At least) one of the communities that the race normally passes through refused to let it pass through, so they had to find an alternate route. Which makes the profile look pretty untypical for MSR:  If you see that profile in a GT, you know the pure sprinters are not gonna be there. I don't want to be cautiously optimistic for a good MSR, but let's see what happens

they also likely won't be ridden at speed with a summit 60k from the line though maybe someone will get the idea that they can lop off a few sprinters early

Jumbo have suspended Groenewegen. Not really that surprising given hes out for a few months anyway and they don't actually lose anything but he could be right in the poo poo.
