    Tarling’s team, NSN Development, withdrew from the race on Saturday, but the race otherwise completed its final stages over the weekend as planned. Riders observed a minute’s silence at the start of the ninth stage, the leader’s jersey worn by Alexis Guérin was changed from yellow to black and the peloton wore black armbands.

  3. “We are speechless and filled with anger after the news of Finlay Tarling’s death at the Tour of Portugal,” the CPA posted. “It is not right that a young athlete’s life should end this way, and we are furious that even today it is still not possible to prevent such serious accidents.”
