Wout van Aert (Visma | Lease a Bike) fell during the second stage of the Tour de France. The Belgian went down while preparing for the intermediate sprint after an awkward maneuver by a colleague. Teammate Matteo Jorgenson and INEOS rider Laurens De Plus also crashed. Van Aert reported that he is doing well under the circumstances, giving a thumbs up as confirmation.
Like the other two, Van Aert did not participate in the intermediate sprint, but suddenly they were all on the ground. All three quickly got back on their bikes, though De Plus, visibly irritated, had to stop briefly to be checked by the team car. Van Aert and Jorgenson also visited the doctor for initial treatment of their injuries.
Jorgenson had a wound on his right elbow, which, like his right shoulder, was exposed. Van Aert, who had been so very happy with his good performance on Saturday, had a wound on his right buttock. De Plus had abrasions all over his body.
Visma | Lease a Bike already saw three riders hit the ground in two days. Wilco Kelderman crashed in Saturday's stage but, like his colleagues in stage two, was able to continue.
