Disturbing scenes in Apeldoorn, there was a big crash during the elimination race with thirteen men left in the peloton. Only the four leading men stayed upright; the crash caught the rest.

It happened at the moment of a sprint lap. The level of nervousness was obviously high: the Belgian Lindsay De Vylder swung at the front, causing Dutchman Philip Heijnen to end up on the blue inside lane. He slid away but miraculously stayed upright. However, the same could not be said for the men behind him. One by one, the riders fell on top of each other. Among them were Roy Eefting-Bloem and world champion Tobias Hansen. There seemed to be quite a bit of damage to equipment and men, but fortunately, there were no serious injuries.
