A massive fall in the middle of the peloton brought down around thirty runners on Thursday.

The days continue on the Women’s Tour de France, and so do the crashes. During the 5th stage, between Bar-le-Duc and Saint-Dié-des-Vosges, disputed this Thursday, July 28, around thirty riders fell 45 kilometers from the finish. A real tangle of bikes and runners on the macadam. Among those who found themselves on the ground, Emma Norsgaard (Movistar Team), Magdeleine Vallieres (EF Education-TIBCO-SVB), Lily Williams (Human Powered Health), Rachele Barbieri (Liv Racing Xstra) and Thalita de Jong (Liv Racing Xstra ).

Movistar’s Dane, Emma Norsgaard, was the victim of a violent shock in the left shoulder while she was in the tangle of about thirty runners. Cited among the favorites of the day, she was taken care of by the medical assistance of the Tour de France and left the road of the Tour. The second overall, Silvia Persico (Valcar-Travel & Service), was delayed.
