The criticism which came from everywhere and the old French sprinter Romain Feillu does not share completely. "Groenewegen shall not be lynched on the public square. Many other factors are to be taken into account to explain this outcome unfortunate ", he said in an interview with the specialized site Cyclismactu.net.

" What must live Groenewegen since the accident, it is the worst of the sanctions. He would give his entire career to save the life of Fabio Jakobsen, that's for sure. Anyway, his life is ruined by guilt. He can only feel guilty, he does not need to be pushed. When I see the words of Patrick Lefevere, I wonder what he wants... there are already Jakobsen who is between life and death, and he wants the other to die of guilt ?! This was not an act that is reflected off of the part of Groenewegen. "
