PONTIVY, France (Reuters) – Slovenian Primoz Roglic, one of the top favourites to win the Tour de France, suffered a heavy crash during the third stage, a 182.9-km ride from Lorient on Monday.
Last year’s runner-up Roglic fell heavily on his left side with 10 kilometres left and suffered bruises.
His Jumbo-Visma team mates gathered to try to pace him back to the main bunch.
