Remco Evenepoel Crashes Out | 2021 Giro d'Italia | Stage 17 | Dan Martin Wins

Remco Evenepoel from Belgium and team (Deceuninck-QuickStep) crashed and post stage pulled out of the 2021 Giro d'Italia. He finished the stage in 132nd place 0:36:28 minutes behind the stage winner.

Evenepoel was quoted saying "Nothing is broken, but I have a lot of 2021 Giro d'Italia
contusions, (cuts on his hand, elbows, tailbone, knee and swelling in his elbows) it doesn't make a lot of sense to carry on with this pain."

On the descent after Passo San Valentino a rider ahead misjudged a tight right-hand bend and went down (with 25 km to go) sparking a mass crash. Evenepoel tried to avoid the pile-up he ran wide and flipped up and over the metal guard rail in a fall, similar to his 2020 Il Lombardia crash but fortunately with less of a drop. He was able to continue amd finish the stage.

Dan Martin from Ireland and team (Israel Start-up Nation) wins the seventeenth stage at the 2021 Giro d'Italia and his 4 Grand Tour stage win of his career and his first at the Giro. 

Martin was quoted saying "That's what I came here for, (victories in all three Grand Tours). I knew that today was one of my last opportunities and with the extra time I lost the day before the rest day it was possible to go in the breakaway. To do it is incredible. I think the shake of the head at the end says I couldn't believe it's happening - I still can't believe it's happening. It's been a rollercoaster us as a team - we lost Chris (Krists Neilands) on the first day, we some really good stages, we had a lot of podiums and then we lost Dema (Alessandro De Marchi) he was in the pink and then he crashed out and Alex got sick. But our spirit has always been amazing. We've had a great team atmosphere. That showed this morning. I knew from recon I did of this climb that it's easier with two kilometres to go, so I rode my pace on the steeper section, just rode a good tempo and then I really went full gas with 2.5 km to go because I knew they were coming close and I could kill their morale. It wasn't until then I really went all in."

João Almeida (Por) Deceuninck-QuickStep) and Simon Yates (Team BikeExchange) were second and third.
