Forced to abandon during the 3rd stage, the Belgian sprinter wanted to clear the person responsible for his downfall.
A victim of a serious fall during the 3rd stage of the Grand Loop on July 7, Jasper Philipsen was forced to give up. A week later, the Belgian took the floor to defend Bryan Coquard.
Belgian sprinter Jasper Philipsen said on Tuesday he did not blame the Frenchman Bryan Coquard, who inadvertently broke him and forced him to give up during the third stage of the Tour de France.
Belgium's sprint star Jasper Philipsen has classified his violent fall at the 112th Tour de France as an "annoying race accident". "I don't blame Coquard," said the bike pro at an online press conference on the rest day of the Tour de France. "People always try to find a culprit. But that's how it is."
