That's a big loss for Jumbo.
Interesting that Ewan followed Cav's wheel for the intermediate sprint.

My first thought in real time was Caleb got a bit over excited and went for a gap that wasn’t there. I also think there are so many crashes because there’s too many riders riding as if it’s a spring classic not a grand tour with the best part of three weeks still to go!That Caleb incident was awful.
Whatever happened he well and truly took Sagan out.
I know the lad is badly injured but just wondered what others thought of it -
Dangerous…… or an unlucky cycling incident?
Terrible day for the Tour. Nobody likes to see crashes and top cyclists dropping out. I do t want to see racing in wide motorways but surely in the early days of the Tour and with adrenaline running high you dont have narrow road sprint stages like that.Reading those views from the riders I wouldn't be surprised if we have some sort of rider protest tomorrow.
Certainly those of us who picked Roglic, Haig and Ewan have suffered. That said its not going to be down to just one pick difference which has been the case with the last two GT comps.I was annoyed I was away and missed out on getting a team in, but after today I think I was the lucky one. It's a complete lottery with all these crashes.
I went for Perez from Cofodis who has a reputation for doing exactly that. Sadly he missed out in a sprint with the lad from Bora on stage 2 for the polka dot jersey and didn't make the break yesterday.Did anyone pick the KOTM guy who has been in every single break so far?
