“I think a lot of people are waiting for Wout Van Aert to come home, but he’s not going anywhere.”directed from the direction of Jumbo Visma before the comments of some runners about the imminent departure of the Belgian runner from his country to attend the second birth of his wife.
Tour leader Jonas Vingegaard himself smiled at comments about Van Aert’s withdrawal.
“No, Wout will not leave. It’s quite difficult to predict when someone will give birth. It’s really good news for me. Van Aert is an amazing person, very strong and a real leader in our team.” He pointed to the yellow jersey.
For his part, Grischa Niermann, the team’s sports director, answered the question about Van Aert with sarcasm.
“Do you also know what flight Wout is taking, so we can take him to the airport?” he quipped.
“We don’t know anything and neither does Wout himself. I think a lot of people are hoping that Wout will go home because it’s less difficult that way.” pointed out the German coach.
The source of doubts about Van Aert’s march was a comment from Danish champion Mattias Skjelmose, who assured a TV channel that he had heard the Belgian cyclist’s comment during his Tour march.
