Chaos. Organization of the
Itzulia Basque Country won't get A-marks for today's time trial. While Primoz Roglic was able to win despite missing going in wrong direction,
Remco Evenepoel crashed in the first meters of the chrono. However what made him fuming was that
UCI allowed his competitors to wear the 'helmet socks' while his team was told he cannot use it anymore.
"We were no longer allowed to ride with the sock. Those from
BORA - hansgrohe have worn it. That the UCI website states that it is prohibited from April 2? We received an email confirming that the ban took effect from April 1. Because in Paris-Nice they had already said that it was the last time we were allowed to race in it. I don't think they know it themselves," said the Belgian at Het Nieuwsblad.
