Video: French TV car hits Tour riders

Tuesday, July 12th, 2011
I really can't believe this doesn't happen more often. In yesterday's 9th stage of the Tour de France, a French television car crashed into Juan Antonio Flecha as it tried to pass him. Flecha then took out Johnny Hoogerland who flew into a barbed wire fence.

Asked if the driver had apologized to him, Flecha declared: “He’s not come to see me and I think if he did I wouldn’t want to talk to him. France Télévisions haven’t tried to apologize to me either.”



Here are a couple of photos of Johnny Hoogerland after the crash.
