I have a question about small injuries. In the older versions there was the red cross showing that the rider is not well, but not hurt enough to quit the race. How is it in the last version of PCM?
My sprinter B. Swift fell in 2nd stage of Giro and the news said that fell hard, but can continue. After this fall he cannot perform normally in grour sprints - places like 15th and lower (he is in perfect form). So, is there a invisible red cross somewhere? I took a look in database and there was no injuries for him, but still he keeps on losing mass sprints to Riccó and other mountainguys.
Be happy.
Handicap 2 and 7 are the smallest as it`s just for one day and just a little bit.
1 and 6 are medium as it`s for 2 days.
Worst is 8 as it takes 8 days to recover and also a big handicap during the race. Absolutely no chance to stay even on a flat stage.
This is what I have usually
When a rider falls and gets injured but not enough to be out of the race, the effect of the injury is immediately, or it is for the next stage? I post this because like 5 minutes ago, Uran fell during Amstel Gold Race and even if he went back to the bike, I'd hate if he don't perform well; one sponsor objective is to be top 5 there.

It is immediately I think as my riders always suffer after the crash.
But with some luck they are not injured after a crash.
Not all crashes cause an injury.
I hope he isn't then. It will be hard enough a top 5 with Uran even in top form. Thanks.
