This is another drop during the Women’s Tour de France. On Thursday, July 28, several dozen runners fell in the fifth stage between Bar-le-Duc and Saint-Dié-des-Vosges. This impressive backlog took place 45km from the finish line and in the middle of the peloton. A tangle of about thirty bikes was visible from the sky, as shown in images from France Télévisions. According to his Twitter account “letourdata“Passengers traveled at a speed of approximately 45 km/h at the time of the accident,” which includes information and figures on bicycle races.
One of the participants, the Dane of the Movistar team Emma Norsgaard, probably hit her collarbone and finally left the competition after sitting on the road for a long time. Other runners managed to start again and redoubled their efforts to catch up with their opponents. Many falls have been observed since the inception of this female version of the Grande Boucle.
On Monday, the second stage was marked by the elimination of Italian Marta Cavalli, one of the favorites of the competition. She was hit very hard from behind by Australian champion Nicole Frain, who was coming at top speed. Marta Cavalli, who suffered a head injury, was treated by the emergency room and had to finish the competition. On July 27, it was the Spanish champion Mavi Garcia who approached disaster. It fell heavily when it hit the sporting director’s car and could have been crushed without the driver’s incredible reflex.
