In the chaos and confusion of the finale to stage 1 of the 2025
Volta ao Algarve, the majority of the peloton ended up lost and on the wrong side of the barriers. The man who led the peloton round the wrong turning, has now given his explanation.
"It's a stupid mistake, but there was no clear signalling,"
explains Lotto's Jarrad Drizners in post-stage quotes collected by Sporza, having initially been planned for leadout duty in support of
Arnaud De Lie in the finale. "If you watch the replay, you'll see me in the middle of the roundabout already looking around."
