'This should not happen and was a big error in my judgement': Disqualified Filip Maciejuk apologises for causing shocking Flanders crash cycling
The pile-up came with around 140km to go as the peloton raced for position ahead of the first ascent of the Oude Kwaremont.
Commentating for GCN and Eurosport, Dan Lloyd said"it is a long time since I have seen a crash as big as that". The 2017 Flanders winner said his former teammates at Soudal Quick-Step seemed to be the worst affected team, with three big names down, and praised the commissaires for using TV footage effectively to come to a decision regarding the disqualification.
Sitting at home watching alongside the rest of us, Lotto DSTNY's Thomas De Gendt — who is good friends with Wellens — said"dangerous" moves like Maciejuk's need to be banned, saying he would be"okay with suspensions for moves like this".
