Wouter Weylandt of Leopard Trek lost his life after a crash in today’s stage of the Giro. A sad piece of news, condolences to his family, friends and teammates.
“We want to remember him with arms held high, crazy with joy after a victory, like the one at Middelburg last year. This is the image of him that all of us will carry in our hearts forever.”
- Part of the statement by Quickstep, his former (and first) professional outfit.
