dev null Posted September 10, 2016 Posted September 10, 2016 It could have been worse. He could have struck one of the barrier poles with his head. He slid cleanly through them, but I suspect the dip just after the barriers did the damage.
andydude Posted September 10, 2016 Posted September 10, 2016 Rojas had a big off. Lucky as hell he went under the barrier rather than into it. Very dramatic.Rojas hits the deck: nasty fall for Spaniard on stage 20 of the Vuelta #LV2016 https://t.co/GNtTkLtvob
Bonus Posted September 10, 2016 Author Posted September 10, 2016 He may well have clipped that upright on the way past.
HappyMartin Posted September 10, 2016 Posted September 10, 2016 He may well have clipped that upright on the way past.Yep. At first it didn't look too serious. Then he barely moved and then stopped moving. Haven't heard anything for a while.
Gen Posted September 10, 2016 Posted September 10, 2016 Yep. At first it didn't look too serious. Then he barely moved and then stopped moving. Haven't heard anything for a while.Ja.. no info coming through, last updated was that he is conscious. Really hope is is okay and doesn't have any serious injuries.
Gen Posted September 10, 2016 Posted September 10, 2016 Now Astana might not be my favourite team..but I am kinda routing for LLS to win the stage here, he has tried so much throughout the Vuelta and come close so many times.

Actually a Spanish win on the penultimate stage would be cool.
Gen Posted September 10, 2016 Posted September 10, 2016 Seems a featured ankle for Rojas. Check out @nealrogers's Tweet: https://twitter.com/nealrogers/status/774597198839291904?s=09
HappyMartin Posted September 10, 2016 Posted September 10, 2016 Yes I like him. LLS I mean. But I really don't like Astana.
Gen Posted September 10, 2016 Posted September 10, 2016 Yes I like him. LLS I mean. But I really don't like Astana.Yeah.. and apparently a cool guy.
Bonus Posted September 10, 2016 Author Posted September 10, 2016 JVR on Twitter re his crash earlier in the race. . . . 2 fractured ribs.2 fractures in the pelvis.Broken clavicle... Mind is stronger than you think!
Gen Posted September 10, 2016 Posted September 10, 2016 Well is Sky's tactics were to make Movistar work.. yes they are working but at a very easy pace.. one would've thought they would've wanted Movistar to be tired by the time the last 2 climbs started.
