Ive seen worse and the race hasnt been stopped. Its the lack of consistency is what pisses me off here. Just make clear rules.
If indeed it was because all the doctors were busy dealing with the injured riders then this makes sense but I agree the rules for these situations just aren't clear enough

So the race is neautrilized to the top if this climb? That is an odd decision

Commentators saying they were waiting for local ambulances and such to take care of those injured.

Apparently it was a false message. He's still in the race. |

Hoogerland wrecked by a France TV car. No neutralisation.
Ajaccio 2013 crash no neutralisation.
Here suddenly we have one. No consistency |

Yeah but isn't this about the lack of doctors to follow the race that's the issue? If that is the case then it's fair enough to hold the race up as if another crash happened with no medical staff around then there would be an uproar

Following from workplace, so Cancellara once more proving he's not really that much Spartacus like he pretends to be?
