Johan Price-Pejtersen was reinstated as the Danish time trial champion after being disqualified for riding off the pavement. However, Mattias Skjelmose, who initially placed second, held the title until the Danish Cycling Union's ruling. The UCI decided to reopen the case, indicating that Price-Pejtersen's reinstatement isn't final. The decision pending from the UCI's Disciplinary Commission leaves a cloud of uncertainty as both riders participated in respective events wearing their champion's attire, highlighting a complex dispute in cycling governance.
Lidl-Trek racer Mattias Skjelmose reluctantly accepted the Danish time trial championship title but expressed great sympathy for his friend Johan Price-Pejtersen following the disqualification reversal.
The UCI has reopened the case regarding Price-Pejtersen's reinstatement, stating it has the authority to appeal any disciplinary decisions made by national federations.
