🇫🇷 #ParisRoubaix Unfortunately, Dylan van Baarle is not feeling well and will not take the start of Paris–Roubaix. Speedy recovery, Dylan. 🍀
Bad luck does not stop for Team Visma | Lease a Bike - Former winner Dylan van Baarle DNS at Paris-Roubaix
CyclingSunday, 07 April 2024 at 10:59
Team Visma | Lease a Bike are having a cursed month. Jonas Vingegaard and Wout van Aert are sidelined, each with serious injuries, but the team's classics block has seen almost every single rider miss out on racing due to injury or illness. The decision has been made minutes before the start that Dylan van Baarle will not race Paris-Roubaix.
The team is departing with Christophe Laporte as a sole leader. The European champion has already missed out no virtually the entire classics campaign due to stomach issues and a saddle sore. He is not likely in his best form at the start of Roubaix, the decision to race was only made days ago.
Van Aert and Jan Tratnik are absent due to injury whilst Matteo Jorgenson is also not racing due to not feeling his best. Van Baarle himself had been ill earlier in the spring but had returned to competition recently. The team will most likely count on outsider cards and give a chance to their young figures in the team.

- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
- Amazing ride by her and very promising for her future. On a side note, it’s a bit worrying all these wins riders have after emotional moments in their lives, someone will come up with emotional doping at some point. Maybe give them fake news just before a big race to get hormones pumping.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
