Before the start of the 17th phase of the Tour of Spain, on Wednesday, Cofidis declared that Frenchman Bryan Coquard experienced supplied up, for the reason that he was “tired of the final couple days. “

This time, it is really safe: Bryan Coquard will go no further more in this 2022 Tour of Spain. Whilst the Frenchman appeared close to spring a couple of days back, on the night of the 13th phase, this Wednesday he will not start off the 17th stage, involving Aracena and the Monasterio de Tentudia. Worn out of the previous several days, Bryan Coquard will not start out this early morning at the Vuelta. He will return to competitions as before long as achievable ”, claimed the Cofidis group, through a brief concept posted on their social networks. Even though the levels for sprinters are no for a longer period quite a few in this 2022 version, the Frenchman therefore resolved to retire immediately after ending only 12th on Tuesday and will as a result be happy with second place guiding Mads Pedersen (Trek-Segafredo), for the duration of the 13th stage. We don’t forget that previous Friday workforce mate Davide Cimolai had declared that Coquard would most likely have offered up. “Coquard will return property to just take component in other races,” he warned.

Cofidis in research of UCI details

“We have to rating points, but I consider it is preposterous. This results in a great deal of tension throughout the year. The paradox of the scenario is that significantly extra points can be earned in lesser gatherings. The details method is a disgrace. I’m not delighted, but I fully grasp the crew, then declared the Italian, in the observations gathered by Bici.Pro. The aim is to continue to be on the Globe Tour, and even if we remain calm, it will be a obstacle. Following some relaxation, the Frenchman could line up in specific for the Tour de Luxembourg to try to score worthwhile UCI points. Moreover, in addition to this abandonment and that of Primoz Roglic (Jumbo-Visma), the Italian Filippo Conca tested positive for Covid and have to halt there way too. Presently hit by a number of abandonments, the Lotto-Soudal formation will thus conclude the Vuelta with only a few ridersspecifically the Belgians Thomas De Gendt and Cédric Beullens, as perfectly as the Polish Kamil Malecki.
