While he didn't have a concussion, which would have forced an immediate withdrawal from the race, Roglič's jersey was torn open all across his shoulder.
Moreover, his back had slammed hard against the ground, and it was impossible to know the full extent of his injuries at the moment.
They would only find out after the stage was over, following an examination by the team doctor.
"Right now, Primož's situation doesn't look good.
He's clearly in a lot of pain!
But forget about that, Huang.
Whatever the results of his examination are after the stage, we have to keep fighting!
I have to deal with Primož's situation now. For the remaining 10 kilometers, you're on your own to keep pace with the peloton.
Remember, as long as you can finish in the same group as the other GC contenders, we still have a chance!"
After hearing Aldag's instructions, Huang Chong felt a profound sense of helplessness.
