Alternatively there is a shortcut where, instead of turning right, racers jump off the edge to the left onto a column, then down to the track below, cutting the corner. Next is a gentle turn right then a curve to the left which lead down some big steps. Alternatively, racers can turn sharply to the left and cut across the grass. After the spiral is a curve to the left with three man-eating plants along the way. The spiral consists of three right-angle turns to the left, bringing racers up and around the pyramid itself. The track begins with an immediate uphill turn to the right, leading racers to the great spiral. Giant man-eating plants act as hazards, and there are a few points at which racers may fall off the track if not careful. The track is built from great golden stone, with carvings of Papu Papu's face found on some walls.

I do hope Fabio makes a full recovery and we can have sprints against each other in the future.This track takes place on and around a massive pyramid temple in the jungle, built in Papu Papu's honour. вЂњI donвЂ™t even want to think about riding my bike in the upcoming months. вЂњEven thinking about sprinting is something that is very far away now,вЂќ he said. Groenewegen, who recently announced he will become a father next February, vows he wonвЂ™t touch the bike for many months to come. We hope everyone recovers well but we also look out for Dylan right now, for his girlfriend Nine and offer them a shoulder to lean on.вЂќ We suspend him during the UCI investigation and we will wait for that outcome. He broke a rule of sportsmanship,вЂќ Plugge said. вЂњAs a team we are shocked by what happened and the consequences of what happened. Team manager Richard Plugge also addressed the incident. Some of the ways they are approached are reprehensible.вЂќ We will support Dylan and his family as a team to come through this (mentally) tough times for them. вЂњWe have decided that Dylan will not start in a race until the judgment of the disciplinary committee to which the UCI has handed over the incident. With his move Dylan broke a sports rule and thatвЂ™s unacceptable,вЂќ the team wrote. вЂњTeam Jumbo-Visma stands for fair sportsmanship, within the rules. They have sidelined him from racing pending the investigation that the UCI Disciplinary Commission opened into incident. Team Jumbo-Visma issued a statement on Friday saying that they acknowledge that GroenewegenвЂ™s behavior was wrong. I do want to speak with them but itвЂ™s too early for that.вЂќ Groenewegen hasnвЂ™t spoken to the family yet.

JakobsenвЂ™s parents and girlfriend Delore were flown to Poland on Thursday morning on a private jet arranged by Deceuninck-QuickStep. I do follow all the news around Fabio though.вЂќ

вЂњI am not following any social media at the moment as you understand. ItвЂ™s clear I didnвЂ™t do this intentionally,вЂќ Groenewegen told NOS. The team is now contemplating legal steps. One of numerous people expressing anger on social media, Lefevere called GroenewegenвЂ™s move a criminal act and suggested that Groenewegen should go to jail, even calling the incident an attempted murder on Belgian National Radio 2. I can only hope he recovers.вЂќДЄfter the crash, Deceuninck-Quickstep manager Patrick Lefevere was very vocal in his anger. вЂњI thought I was okay at first but then went to hospital. He was brought to hospital after WednesdayвЂ™s stage and underwent surgery. Groenewegen broke his collarbone and suffered abrasions in the fall. I can now only hope Fabio recovers fast.вЂќ ItвЂ™s clear that you have to sprint in a straight line. Turning back time would be easy but itвЂ™s a sprint and I made a mistake by deviating from my line. вЂњI saw his teammates standing around Fabio. I saw it was bad and I heard it was really bad,вЂќ he said. ItвЂ™s mayhem,вЂќ Groenewegen said.ДЄs he continued, a tearful Groenewegen occasionally stopped to collect his thoughts. I crash, am on the floor and others crash. Everything went so fast and the barriers were flying around. You see someone is coming and I deviate from my line. вЂњIn a sprint you are not thinking about anything more than just crossing that finish line first. GroenewegenвЂ™s Jumbo-Visma team, meanwhile, has released a statement announcing that Groenewegen will be pulled from racing until the UCI makes a judgement on imposing further sanctions.ДЄ very emotional Groenewegen spoke to Dutch national broadcaster NOS and described the sprint from his perspective in an interview broadcast on Friday. Two days after he sparked a crash at the Tour of Poland that seriously injured Fabio Jakobsen and left several others hurt as well, Dylan Groenewegen has spoken at length about the incident for the first time.
