Speechless. Very sad.

And you didn't even mention him or the crash. R. I. P. Such a tragedy.

Our thoughts are with the people close to him. (as mentioned by others i think there should have been a mention of the facts known at the point you edited the highlights.)

This deserves a serious discussion about bike safety during professional races. First we had the complete disregard for safety on behalf of the race organizers at the Tour des Pyrenees. Then we lost a promising young rider in a deadly descent in the Tour de Suisse. These incidents comes just a few weeks after a professional event moto driver died after having a head-on collision with an age group racer on the bike course at Ironman Hamburg. Three catastrophic or near catastrophic events and two casualties. Event organizers need to do some serious soul searching and the athletes, fans, and media need to be holding these groups accountable.

Awful. Shocking news, I'm in disbelief

i remember him (i am 66).. lived just north in Winnipeg Manitoba Canada for decades. The winters there are very very harsh!

RIP to him 🕊️🕊️🕊️

And which killed Mäder... RIP Gino Mäder

Today its all about money and not showing bad signs of the sport

maybe in respect of the family they say nothing? imagine you are the parent to him and you are watching live!?!??!

@@sllll7457 i understand your point, but i am referring to the highlights video that is released a few hours after the stage ended, by that time the emergency contacts are already informed. Let me also clarify that stating facts is the aim here. At that point the only thing known was that there was a bad accident and there was a need for a helicopter transport to the hospital. So indeed not in favor of speculations, that pure reporting of facts and well wishes. Now we know what was the conclusion... RIP 💔

this might have been recorded before there was any real news on that

Gino Mäder passed away… RIP 🕊️

RIP Gino Mäder

RIP

GCN, how is there not even a mention in your highlight package that a cyclist was air-lifted to hospital ?!?

Jeez, fingers crossed for Gino

😨🤕😔

Just heard that he's dead 😪

​@@henriksrensen3220source?

​@@henriksrensen3220fake newd

Holy shit 😢

“Both riders are on their way to the hospital. As far as we know, Magnus Sheffield is less seriously injured. Gino Mäder suffered serious injuries, but I can't go into more detail about them,” Tour de Suisse director Olivier Senn told SRF. These fucking organizers never learn.

Mäder was in the water, they thought he was dead. It was insane

I think Mäder had a very very serious crash, still in serious condition from the last update from TdS organizers

The organisers need to be held accountable for this crash. As remco said the finish should have been on top of the mountain! The descent was just unnecessary!

Ayuso will lead out Pogacar no doubt. Gonna have to find another team if he wants a GC bid.

Remco was 4 years ago to be the new Merckx. Nobody thinks that right now. It seems like an oldie with Ayuso and others coming so hard. And of course Pogacar and Vingegaard who seems to be better than Remco on a 3 week race

you not serious at 20 tadej was winning grand tour stages and fighting in GC and you are here saying nonsense

@@MYSTERY_GAMES123 Tadej with 20 (4 years ago) was on 2019. Yes, he won Algarve and Tour of California, and 3rd in La Vuelta. You are right, but 3rd in La Vuelta also did it Ayuso last year with only 19 years old. Today is fighting for GC in Tour de Suisse. Similar path then. But I don't say Ayuso is better than Pogacar, I think Pogacar is the best of our time and could become the best ever in some years. What I was comparing is to Evenepoel. Ayuso is and will be better than Evenepoel in my humble opinion.

Ayuso on Gianetti's cocktail, the Pogacar Porridge.

they know the risk they take they arent forced to do anything if they dont wanna be a cyclist they dont have to be

rip to the guy must be horrible for his friends and family not sayibg its deserved or anything just that there are risks and we all know what they are

I take it you're new to professional road cycling? Go watch some old Giro's. They've never respected safety as number one priority.

I'm sorry but this post is nonsensical, to say the least. I'm assuming you're either new to the sport or at best a very casual fan, otherwise you would not be typing that. The same exact finish with Albulapass descent into La Punt has been used in many past Tour de Suisse editions. It is somewhat of a traditional stage. It had been used in 1995, 2010, 2013, 2017 to name some recent years. Back in 1995 helmets weren't even compulsory, and most riders didn't even want to wear it, there is another KZfaq video with footage of that stage that will show it. In fact, helmets were only mandatory in road racing after another tragic loss, the one of Andrei Kivilev, back in 2003 Paris-Nice, despite some riders protest to make it compulsory in the aftermath of the event. I'm making this point just to call off your modern day gladiator narrative, which is uninformed and preposterous. Cycling is a dangerous sport that entails certain risks. Of course, race organizers need to minimize them, but from time to time we have seen tragic incidents like this and many times, like in Gino's case, organizations are not to blame. Sadly, every year there is a near fatal or fatal crash. Just in recent times, we tragically lost Wouter Weylandt, Antoine Demoitie, Bjorg Lambrecht and Gino Maeder due to crashes. There were other riders, like Stig Broeckx, Kris Boeckmans, Milan Vader, Fabio Jakobsen which experienced near-death crases but thankfully made it alive. I'm only taking into account crashes which came on top of my mind since 2011. There were also victims of cardiac arrests like Alessio Galletti (circa 2005), Michael Goolaerts, Daan Myngher, Remco Te Brake (all of those late 2010s, early 2020s). Cycling is, sadly, a high-risk sport. Descents are also part of the sport, just like high speed sprint finishes. Gino tragically lost his life on a descent he probably knew by heart, being this his country. He was not fighting for the stage or for the overall, thus your narrative is also frail at that point. By the way, cyclist reach high speeds in every single descent, whether it is 10K or 100K from the finish. Sprinters and stragglers are dropped and need to make it back to the pack. They take huge risks not captured by camera, because they are chasing. Again, your narrative is off. I'm just writing these lines to shed some light of your ill and uninformed post about society lust for spectacle applied to cycling. If anything, your post brings two modern day topics: anyone with little knowledge is free to throw in its opinion on social media and make a fuss about everything (particularly about things they don't know or understand). Secondly, it brings to the fore today's cancel culture about everything people disagree with. Thus I would suggest you to educate well yourself in the topic before posting and also would be glad if you would take your cheap and distasteful 20 cent philosophy away. Finally, R.I.P. Gino Maeder. It is indeed a tragic and sad loss.

there is no good form remco can have and compete with pog and vingo,roglic.(and even on long climbs he can't even beat both yates in top form). because in terms of climbing there big talented and strong than him. may be he is a second tier climber

He passed away… RIP 🕊️

And no single shots/views of the legendary Furka pass :(

No, I felt like I was completely lost the whole time. I would know just as much about the race if I would just look at the stage result. Completely useless highlights.

You can see where they are by looking at x km to go but I agree, the summary is all over the place. And sad to not see anything from the Furkapass

Not sure who was behind the broadcast, but the coverage was very poor. As if the producers had not prepared or budgeted for multiple cameras and motos to stay with different groups. Perhaps there were technical issues. With race-specific GPS tracking on rider's bikes, coverage will hopefully improve.

And lack of respect for being not reported

I love this sport but it can indeed have a very dark side. A good friend crashed 2 years ago and broke his neck…he’ll probably never walk again…it can be very cruel.

Yeah the whole thing is awful

Hmm...usually Rob Hatch is a kilometer or two AHEAD on announcing the Winner.

He passed… RIP 🕊️🕊️🕊️

But not reported I see..... whitewash

When, where? Would love to hear that!

@@andrasszabo1570 It was the GCN+/Eurosport live coverage of the Tour De Suisse stages. The main presenter was Rob Hatch, she was the co-presenter for the whole stage. I only caught yesterday and today's stages, but she was on each time.

Pogacar he needs to change team😂

@@firminodias4419 I'm not saying this year. Maybe 2026?

No

@@adrianweeezer I agree with you. Ayuso has all the talent to challenge them.

No

He had a injury at the start of the season

@@galankpv thanks.

@@galankpv thanks.

He was pointing at his ankle. He hadn't raced much at the beginning of the year because he had tendonitis in it.

I used my head and feet

he struggled past 6 months with achille's issue.

103 kmh 😵

GCN shame on you.

yeah i was wondering if he goes all put he might as qwell put in 3-4 more seconds and arguably set him up for a gc victory, was wondering about that too

ABSOLUTELY! It's like they don't learn....

Maybe not fully recovered from Covid

Remco is still highly likely to take significant time on all current GC rivals in stage 8 TT. If Ayuso and Skjelmose have a good TT they might hang on, based on stage 1 TT Gall isn't going to factor.

has been announced he has died 😢
