- De slotkilometer van het beruchte wereldkampioenschap wielrennen voor profs over de weg, editie 1988 te Ronse, waar Claude Criquielion tot op 175m voor de meet zijn tweede wereldtitel leek te behalen maar dit hem helaas ontnomen werd door een pijnlijke valpartij na aanraking met de dranghekken ten gevolge van een dubieus manoeuvre van Steve Bauer - die dan ook onmiddellijk gediskwalificeerd werd en Maurizio Fondriest uiteindelijk als overwinnaar van dit WK in de annalen werd opgetekend.
Plaats & datum: Ronse, zondag 28 augustus 1988
Uitzending via BRT-televisie [u hoort Mark Vanlombeek en Marc Stassijns als wielercommentators - en voor de aandachtige luisteraars zelfs ook heel even Mark Uytterhoeven]

RIP the Great Claude Criquelion,... you deserved that gold...
After the Jakobsen/Groenewegen crash, i can't look at this crash the way i used to. This was unfortunate, but no foul play. I used to think Bauer was a reckless maniac. Now, i actually feel sorry for him, and the way he was treated because of this incident.
Im the son of steve bauer and he told me he did not mean to elbow criquielion into the bars, he also said criquielion hit his arm to bring it up and criquielion leaned into the bars. Can't get a better awnser then that.
@@deanbauer5385 Thanks for sharing that.
RIP . You were the best in the final 1988
Came here after watching Dylan Groenewegen at the 2020 Tour of Poland. Some things never change!
RIP Claude
I remember as a kid reading about this with excitement in _Winning_ _Bicycle_ _Racing_ _Illustrated_ .
Awesome magazine back in the day!
@@TheRichmondRoadie I still have them too.
@@CesarClouds Awesome! I have quite a few issues as well:)
Vorige week. Vorige week keek ik deze video nadat ie in mijn recommended opdook. En vandaag is er een nagenoeg exact gelijke, gigantische valpartij als Dylan Groenewegen van zijn lijn afstapt en een megaravage veroorzaakt in de finish. Bi-fucking-zar.
Tijdens de eindgeneriek van Sportweekend van die dag kun je trouwens de beelden van deze valpartij vanuit een vertraagd en ander perspectief zien: th-cam.com/video/esPmgZkVSnc/w-d-xo.html
R.I.P.
I remember reading about this incident in Winning magazine a month after it happened, felt bad for both riders whom I idolized but Bauer was exonerated years later in a Belgian court. RIP CRIQ
court trials and lawyers are one matter, sports truth is another one. Bauer was guilty 100% .
J'étais un gamin à l'époque, 11 ans, j'avais pleuré de rage mais avec le recul, en revoyant ces images, je pense que c'est Fondriest qui aurait gagné même sans la chute du Criq', au moment ou ce dernier tombe, Fondriest est juste derrière et commence à faire son effort et il a quand même prouvé par la suite qu'il avait du sprint. Voila, Criquielion a bercé mon enfance mais la en revoyant les images et en regardant attentivement, ok on peut faire des reproches à Bauer mais vraiment je pense que Fondriest aurait quand même gagné.
Je suis certain que Criq aurait gagné. Il était complètement lancé et il ne restait que 75 mètres. Fondriest était à la peine. Je suis sûr qu'il n'aurait gagné sans la chute. Le commentateur dit d'ailleurs bien qu'il a du mal juste avant la chute. Oui, Criq aurait pu choisir l'autre côté, mais Bauer allait vers la gauche avant de se rabattre vers la droite. Au moment où Criq s'élance, il y a encore deux mètres pour passer. Non, franchement, on lui a volé ce titre, il était au sommet de sa forme.
My dad knows him :) Bauer was a good hockey player too. His hockey mentality kicked in haha.
As Bauer approached CC and Fondriest he should have blazed past them at full speed. More than likely they would have just looked at each other to chase and meanwhile Bauer is gone. I think Bauer is underrated in cycling history, but in this case it looked like his elbow put CC in the barriers. Bauer could have had this one.
I have to admit it looks indeed like Bauer was strong enough to win this race but he himself was surprised by what he had done.
No you are wrong, Steve Bauer was disqualified. Fondriest became World Champion, 2nd was Gayant, 3rd was Fernandez
Claude Criquelion heeft die koers gewonnen punt
I was 14 years old
Vi esa carrera con rabia al final por que Bauer sacó del título a Criquielion
Yo la vi con mucha alegría porque gracias a eso Juan Fernández consiguió el Bronce
look's to me that he leaned into the barrier
Steve Bauer had a lot of advantage from the motorcycles, big failure there.
The way I see it is that Bauer didn't deliberately put Criquielion into the barriers, but he did mean to block him and to hell with the consequences - what was deliberate was the continued closing of the gap as well as the elbow after shifting gears (mid-sprint?!) after first swerving all the way over to the right, then to the left, then a sudden dart to the right again when Criq was coming through on the inside, which he had every right to - but sure, I can see how Bauer's actions were probably out of panic and desperation rather than bad intentions. Nevertheless he knew what he was doing by 'closing the door' on a faster rival having found himself in the wrong gear and with no chance of contesting the sprint. Perhaps that kind of tactic may be acceptable and laudable to the 'win at all cost' subscribers, but doesn't necessarily sit comfortably with everyone. I have no beef with Steve Bauer, but he was the one at fault. RIP CC.
Tenía 14 años
Bauer should'nt have come back, but he smacked Criquilion into the ballustrades
Groenewegen 2
Logischer lijkt me: Groenewegen = Bauer 2 ;-) (hoewel er in al die jaren wellicht al meerdere renners een gelijkaardige fout begaan hebben...)
Bauer moved over to box in Criquelion on the inside. This is a standard move. When done correctly the guy on the inside has to back out and come around but by then it's too late. Every sprinter knows the risk when you choose to go on the inside because you risk being boxed in, and it's also dangerous. I feel sorry for Bauer and Criquelion both. They both deserved to win, but it appeared that Criquelion would have won here. Regardless, this win certainly lauched Fondriest's career.
Can somebody give me a sprint where Fondriest lost to Criquelion?? Still can't see why or how Criq should/could have won this one..

This is a pretty steep hill, not a flat sprint. Criquelion was in top form and would have won for sure. At 75 meters, he comes full speed to pass Bauer and you can tell Fondriest is having difficulties (the Flemish commentator saw it too and says it).
you can see Bauer reached down to shift at the very last second when Criquelion was coming around and he moved over. He also stuck out his elbow to make it more difficult for Criquelion to pass him. There was no maliciousness here, just standard race tactics. Criquelion should have gone on the outside where there was no risk. Fondriest interestingly never sat done during the whole last km, as if he was getting ready to pounce anyway, so who knows maybe Fondriest would have won anyway.

At 1:58 Criquelion had his chance to go to the outside and try to pass Bauer. He chose to go to the inside and got the door shut on him. Too bad, but if you take the inside line, you take your chances and you take responsibility for the outcome. That's a fact of life in any race. Besides, this was the flippin' World Championships. Let's get real here. Was Bauer supposed to be courteous or competitive?
Bauer got disqualified so it would seem he did cross the line. It was a pretty shit bit of riding, i'm glad it's been uploaded. Bauer doesn't have the build of a cyclist, there is something dodgy about him. He was built like an NFL player.
Lol you must be Australian.
Bauer is a piece of shit and he get punished for being rotten inside
Bauer first went left (outside) then veered back to the right (inside). He was unpredictable. When Criquelion comes full speed to pass him, there is still two meters between Bauer and the side of the road. There was plenty of space but Bauer could not hold his line.
Have a look at Bauers sprinting style, he had a natural tick/twitch of always sticking his right elbow out when he was going all out, whether anyone was there or not. Btw if Claud had of saved his protesting he'd have bagged a silver as a consolation at least.
LOL.
Le pire peut être ce jour-là aura été la joie indécente de Fondriest ... Gagner dans de telles conditions et oser lever les bras et exploser de joie ... Salut Claudy, toi, les courses que tu as gagnées tu peux en être fier au moins ... Reposes en paix loin des courses cyclistes professionnelles, de leurs mensonges, de leurs mesquineries, et des bassesses et combines de tes adversaires (cf. tes "défaites" dans certains Liège-Bastogne-Liège)
Bien dit, il méritait ce titre et une ou deux doyennes.
Criquelion un grande corridore. Ma Fondriest non c' entrava nulla sulla scorrettezza di Bauer e comunque era li quindi perche' non doveva esultare?
This is the way I see it: Bauer did not (and never would have tried to) deliberately take Criq' out. When Bauer sat down to shift gears he lost momentum so as Criq' gained on him and tried to pass (on the dangerous side near the barricades which was reckless to begin with), Criq' actually rides up and into Bauer's elbow, which knocked Bauer's arm forward (making it look at first glance like an 'elbow flick') but in fact, the truth is Criq' caused himself to crash by running into Bauer!!
Bauer was disqualified.
Bauer infame
Steve Bauer was cleared of wrong doing in this incedent.criqueloin was just in the wrong place.
