QST car hit Alaphilippe on the deck at Brabantse Pijl and G's gilet in opening stage of le tour
Maybe make a 2022 biggest success? It's a bit more positive and would balance out the fail video. ;)
Things Vingegaard did before winning TDF:
Rode the wrong way in Tirreno
Confused about the blue jersey
Crashed into Vlasov in a uphill punch in Itzulia
Chopped Izagirre’s wheel in Itzulia
Panicked on stage 5 TDF and went “BikeExchnage” all over the place
He’s such a treasure
He had "wasted" all his bad luck and then made those 2 incredible bike saves, one with Pogi, another on the descend of that TT stage.
What a guy
Envy is a bitter pill to swallow.
So nice that the first thing Elisa Borghini thought about, that she's glad she didn't hurt anyone!
Amazing attitude, these things happen 🤷♀
Putting a speedbump 500m to go in a sprint stage at the Vuelta a Burgos causing a massive crash. Huge fail on the part of race organizers and rider safety in general
I missed Pog getting 4th in a sprint of 2
Came here looking for this. Was not disappointed.
Almost woke my family up laughing at this XD
yeah, I was expecting to see this fail too.
surely Thomas forgetting to take his gilet off in the TdF time trial should have gotten a mention?
Good point!
Together with AvV wearing het TT suut for road race and had to wear her normal kit over it.
This season had some of the most dangerous finishes(last km) in cycling. Speed bumps, chicane, downhill, narrowing road, dangerous placed barriers, finishes in a corner. List goes on and on.
The fail title for wrong turns should only go to the organisers :)
that caja rural rider must’ve felt humiliated, crashing while celebrating a win they didn’t have
His saddle clamp broke.
That was by far the worst one of the bunch
Looked like a nasty bump 🤕
don't think skidding out on a sharp left turn in the wet is a fail but all the rest were bang on
Your notion of failing differs from mine...
@@tooleyheadbang4239ok? i can't even remember what this clip from 9 months ago was, but still a skid on a sharp turn in the wet is still not a fail
No. It's an unqualified success.
All the winners do it!@@mstrasser
Thanks for the content
I can't explain why I find the wrong turns so amusing
Trentin mocking Bettiol at 1:27
Formolo
Another one is on La vuelta, when Primoz Roglic crashed on a sprint battle when Remco is having puncture.
That was the Vuelta. Neither of them were at the Giro.
I like these videos. It reminds us that pro cyclists are still human beings. Thanks!
They are indeed! Even if we think they are machines some days 🤯
@@gcnracingmachines have sensors to see and gps to keep em on track.
What about half the peloton being sent the wrong way at the finish in the Tour of Britain in Mansfield?
Has to be AMSTEL GOLD with the poor Bernard Cosnefroy being told he was the winner and celebrating, Michał Kwiatkowski commiserating (although his celebration and commiseration face are pretty much one and the same), then the decision reversed after the photo finish judges showed Michał Kwiatkowski actually won.
A cracking race, these last few editions have never failed to deliver epic races. Great commentating by Rob Hatch as well.
Yeah that was a bad one!
Wouldnt even consider Philipsen and Bettiol failing. Much better than thinking someone finished already and not going for the sprint. If you always go for it you are on the safe side :D
What about the time during the tour when the two cars stopped at the same time and the riders crashed into them in the same exact way?
WVA is the funniest one in green jersey about to raise his arms 😂
When do we get the GCN presenter fails 😂😂
I miss the brutal crash in the womans TdF when Australian champion rolls without braking into a pile of riders after a crash before, "seeing a gap". I know, not very nice to see but I ve never seen anything like this before and definitely a fail
Yeah I still don't know wtf she was thinking
@@whatwelearned She was interviewed after the race. She'd been drafting the commissaire's vehicle coming back from a mechanical and didn't see the crash happen.
@@kgsails7102 She said to Eurosport "I thought I saw a hole, but I couldn't pass it. I am a bit disappointed. I thought I could go through it. It was fast, so I didn't miss the crash."
That sounds to me like she did have the chance to at least reduce speed and the pictures prove that
That was a nasty crash! 😬
i miss the womans tdf in general. with many inexperienced riders when it comes to big pelotons it was a big mess with so many dumb crashes, this being the dumbest one
Surely the biggest mistake was Dans ticktok dancing!
love it
Biggest fail of 2022 - Roglič crashing himself into Wright, then blaming Wright for it.
AFAIK, Rog still hasn't apologized for it - either the crash or, more importantly, publicly blaming it on Wright.
Because he is correct. And wright basically said the same when 1st interviewed before the pr guy got there
2:26 The guy's saddle falls off as he crosses the line - what a weird incident! Must've been the dont-celebrate-too-early-prevention device kicking in! 😆
Well spotted.
I just assumed he was riding without one...
regarding the tirreno mishap, the riders couldn't really see the turn coming up at that speed and there wasn't enough proper indication, so if you didn't knew the route well enough, you were fucked. The riders behind were helped by seeing that Remco, Vingegaard and Pogacar looked, slowed down and turned around (and were going slightly slower than those 3 who were on the attack)
thanks for epic memoryes
More epic racing to come, have you seen our tour preview? 👉 czcams.com/video/E2j7ryIu6QY/video.html
Most disastrous fail in this years Tour of Britain is missing.
It happened in the stage 5, within the last one kilometre, bunch of riders went into a wrong lane and couldn't get back.
Good point! A failure from the organisers?
@@gcnracing I think so. That was a point supporting riders leave the head of the race and moving to a side. Clearly there was no barrier or no staff to block the way as it happened.
Big fail and antifail: Pogacar crashes but Vingegaard waits
One of the best moments from the tour 🙌
The curse of Robbie McEwen..... poor old Christophe Laporte in the Tour.
Making all the pros ride disc bikes.
Shame there's no throwback to Robbie in the Ruta del Sol.
I really feel bad for Prades. His saddle straight up fell off, not even his fault, adding injury to insult
When you're so fast the 2nd group don't know you finished
Some people really think that we need crappy tunes on every sports vid. Fail!
MVDP's hotel rumble with two teenage girls the night before Wollongong.
So...a rider who is beaten square and fair all while he's just not having his best of days in the mountains is a fail to you? Come on, you can't be serious.
Organizers should be fined for lack of clear indications to riders, and for lack of barriers where clearly necessary. At least put someone if you cannot put barriers for safety reasons.
Are the organisers to blame over the riders? 🔎
Hold the UCI gravel world championship in Iceland a truly gravel epic terrain that would produce a true champion.
Would be an amazing circuit 🙌
I have a hard time blaming some of the riders for these "fails." When a road has more than one possible route to take, there should be NO WAY to take the wrong one! There should be barricades, course marshalls and/or signs that make it clear where they're supposed to go. I've missed or made wrong turns just on organized rides that were poorly marked. And I wasn't going nearly as fast as these riders are.
Good point! A fail on the part of the organisers?
Some of them are bad markings, but most are just riders not paying attention. It’s an outdoor sport, paying a little bit of attention to your surroundings is part of the game.
Could you do one showing the mechanical failures that happened in 2022? Seats falling off, forks breaking, tires collapsing?
This is good, but I know everyone else here, like me, is waiting for CyclingOutOfContext's 2022 recapped
How can you not include AVV crashing literally 10m into the World TT? God-damned Dutch can't get anything right as a team! 😂
That was a nasty crash. It's incredible that she went on to win the road race days later!
van Vleuten's crash at the start of the world's TTT?
2:52...3:54 Nomad....
5:28 after 352 miles. 5:38
Never celebrate early. After the line, there is time enough. Never understood the mindset of finishing with raised arms..
"Look at me! Look at me! Look at me!"
Typical cyclist mentality. In London, they actually ride to work dressed like this!
This would have been enhanced with some captions or the race or stage
Where is this 🤩
Silly Tim
sorry, but I have to say this - road shoes are so uncomfortable for walking (4.50m from video) .. can't believe these are still in service ..
he falls because his saddle comes off
Here's a real fail for you......."Aye uhn vn rrt tho hi leiinr furrrst" .First rule of commentating:Make sure the audience is able to easily understand you, otherwise they won't pay to listen/watch.
Pretty sure in the TDF a rider got punched in the face by a bag drop
Pinot
COULDNBT BE ME 69:03
The biggest fail was Jumbo Visma releasing a statement blaming Fred Wright for Roglič's fall in the Vuelta and everybody on the internet turning against them 😅
@4:01 WTF is this. They could at least have signs strung high and low for the sharp left than this nonsense.
Typical GCN cringe to include Pogacar losing the yellow jersey. Where was the fail in this?
Losing the yellow jersey doesn't sound like success to me...
Pay per view grand tours.....
Wrong turns, blaah, very badly marked course.
you missed the voss puppy paws
the biggest cycling fail is the lack of female voices.
Oh dear. The truth of the GCN "WTF" thumbnail. So unnecessary.
cycling fail #1: carlton kirby still has a job. all the women who you sometimes let commentate on races are FAR BETTER than that man.
more female voices means LESS male voices, because that is how math works oi? carlton kirby is awful. i dont know a single person who enjoys his "slow bicycle race" genius analysis time after time. but men run GCN so this will never change will it?
Stay away from the children
5:37 "That's something you never wanna see.." Speak for yourself.
3:51 dove veto more?
My biggest fail of 2022 is I somersaulted over my handlebars due pulling my front brake in reactionary panic because a squirrel ran out of hedges on my right but at the last second decided not to run onto the road. I'm sure he was waiting for me. Evil squirrel.
🚴♂☜ 🐿🗩 "Haahaa!"
I think we've all had that at some point!
Simply don't break for minor upstacles ✌🏻
