The president of the Spanish federation presenting awards…
and then they disappear like foam…
You have no shame’
He’s right, they have no shame. They promise the world and then when you get injured they disappear. Not only that, they allow those same promises to still be made to riders despite proving they have no intention of actually giving any support to riders when they actually need it.
For background, Carlos Tatay became paralysed following a crash and has had zero support or even correspondence from the Spanish Federation and their insurers. He’s been left to face it alone, he was literally dropped like a stone and has been ignored by everyone involved with the Spanish Federation, including his team and DORNA.
When you’re on track racing, they’re all over you, but the second you’re not, they couldn’t care less.
