The guy who caused the pile-up just dropped! WTH happened? It looks like he just fainted.
They’re going like bats out of Hades and someone touched wheels with another rider and tons of people go down. The guy in yellow (the race leader) Cancellara broke 2 vertebra in the wreck and quit the race that night (after finishing the ride in a ton of pain). They’ve had several wrecks and the leader yesterday broke his collarbone and had to abandon as well. War of attrition this tour.
There was another cyclist side-drafting him on his left, doing a little rub'n, that caused a cut rear tire.
