BAD CRASH at 37 miles from finish.
Riders down on a flat straight part of the road moving at over 30mph.
Race has been stopped ...or neutralized.

First three riders to abandon the Tour de France: William Bonnet (FDJ), Tom Dumoulin (Giant) and Simon Gerrans (Orica).
Cancellara (yellow Jersey) went down but is back up riding slowly.
Race was neutralized because there was a second crash about 1 minute after the first and no medical or team cars could get through the first mess.

You forgot the Spoiler Alert! I haven’t seen today’s race yet. Guess what I’ll be doing tonight? :-)
