Eli Tomac was disqualified from the Exact Cross Beringen after a mid-race altercation with Ryan Kamp escalated into unsportsmanlike behavior. The incident unfolded when the two riders collided during a high-pressure section of the race, leading to a crash that left both riders frustrated. In a moment of anger, Tomac reportedly stomped on Kamp’s bike, damaging it, which prompted immediate action from race officials.

The crash occurred as Tomac and Kamp were jockeying for position in the tough cyclocross race, where tight turns and technical sections often lead to close contact. However, Tomac’s reaction crossed the line when he lashed out at Kamp’s bike, drawing the attention of race officials and spectators. The unsportsmanlike conduct was quickly addressed, and Tomac was disqualified from the race shortly after the incident.

Ryan Kamp, though shaken by the crash and the damage to his bike, managed to complete the race but later expressed his disappointment with how the situation unfolded. He emphasized that while crashes are part of the sport, maintaining professionalism and respect for fellow competitors is crucial. “It was a tough situation for both of us, but I didn’t expect things to escalate like that,” Kamp said after the race.

Following his disqualification, Tomac issued a public apology, acknowledging that his actions were out of line. “I deeply regret what happened out there. Emotions were running high, but that’s no excuse for my behavior. I want to apologize to Ryan and to everyone watching,” Tomac said.

The incident is likely to have further consequences, as race organizers and governing bodies review Tomac’s actions. His disqualification marks a significant setback in his competitive cyclocross season, with possible repercussions for his future races and standings.
