Thymen Arensman (Netcompany Ineos) missed his start time for the Tour de France stage 16 individual time trial, arriving on the start ramp in a panic and then waving his arm in frustration after being pushed down the ramp by officials. Yet he still managed to produce a strong ride.
The Dutch rider was not in sight as the clock ticked down to his official start time of 16:25:30. He appeared ten seconds later, with a race official who was there to hold him for the start of his ride also late and almost falling in the rush for them to get to the start ramp.
