Thinking about George’s crash and Zhou’s crash at Silverstone. How George, acting on instinct, parked his car forfeited his race, and hardly thought about rushing to help in anyway he could. How he talked about how scared he had felt, and how worried for Zhou he had been. How he found himself in a situation that must have been one of his worst fears and they didn’t red flag the race for him. Despite how much he was asking for one. No. They had him sitting on the track, unable to see the cars coming at him, trapped and frantically looking around waiting for that impact. Its horrifying. It shouldn’t have happened to anyone, and the fact that George showed his true character by immediately placing another drivers safety first, but the sport couldn’t do that for him in return is so upsetting.
the thing about cycling is they love to hold hands and they love to cry. what more do you want from a sport
very weird way to announce your new team principal but ok alpine
You can instantly id josh purely by leg length
Nut sisters attack!!!!
everytime i read something more abt George this week i get progressively sicker. He doesnt deserve anything thats happened to him and i cannot believe people have the audacity to question his motives right now. See how YOU feel in a situation that could have been fully fatal. The FIA is a mess and i want to give him the biggest hug in the world. My poor darling boy. He deserves better. Do better.
pardon me sappy emotional post coming up:
egan bernal just won the colombian national road race. now i first started watching cycling properly in 2019 and egan was the first rider i really fell in love with. after that horrific crash in 2022 it’s honestly been so brilliant just to see him racing, i’ve been so excited just seeing him in breaks.
i saw an interview with him at the start of the 2023 tour and he said it didn’t matter to him if he never won anything again, he was just so happy to be back in a peloton again.
and now he’s won the national title in both the itt and the road race. first wins since the giro in 2021. i barely every cry at this sport but this got me.
2025 is the year of egan guys COME ON
everybody STOP what they're doing and look at nijntje at the tour de france
