I have a cyclist injured in the Giro d'Italia, but it is only for one week, so monday he will be healed again I thought. But now I see that he is not in the standings anymore :s This must me a bug, please fix this!! It is my best cyclist, he was going to win the Giro with more than 20 minutes advantage, and also the mountain jersey, and now I only have the points jersey  My team: MVV Offside (13603) The cyclist: Souhayl Fattet (28740) Please help me asap, otherwise I will lose the Giro mod-edit : removed the "shouting" in the title |

Someone who is injured leaves the tour he is riding, that is hard but that is how it is supposed to be. So that is not a bug, better luck next time.

If Contador gets injured during the Tour the France, but he is able to finish (like Fattet did, he crossed the finish line!!) and the next day he is fit again, then he will just continue his Tour. So is this really true, that Fattet will not continue the Giro? If it is, that's really amateuristic. |

If in peloton it states that a cyclist is injured that means he withdraws from the race because he isn't able to continue.
It also happened to me and lots of others here, I understand you don't think it is fair, but in fact it is because it is a rule that applies (and can happen) to everyone no matter if your cyclist gets injured on a monday, tuesday or sunday !

But if he was wounded and hurt for one week, he wouldn't race that tour an y further. Would he?
Just bad luck. I've been in the same situation. It's hard and it sucks, but that's the game.

He's healthy now (after update) so I don't understand why he shouldn't start again monday. I've been in the Tour the France in 2006, when McEwen was injured (in the ass  ) quite seriously, but the other day, he started again and won the green jersey (thanks to my pillow  ). So all these explanations and consolations are very friendly, but to me it seems just like a system failure, and due to it I lose the yellow jersey, the mountain jersey and the team classifications. That will be approximately 400k I'm afraid, which is very much for a 4th division team  |
