  1. This incident was the most stupid and totally unnecessary accident in all the 50+ years ive watched " The Tour de France".
    However whenever I see idiotic fans running along side these amazing athletes my heart is in my mouth. One small trip could lead to disaster for somebody.

  2. To say it in a civil matter .. It would be interesting to measure the average IQ of all the people standing besides the track.

  3. The spectators are an absolute nuisance…what the hell is it with these spectators…they are completely out if control. Something needs to be done before someone's going to get hurt badly. 😮😮

  4. She deserves to rot in hell. They suffered their whole lives to be there and she crushed their hopes and dreams, and made them mentally worse to continue riding.

  5. For anybody who is wondering about the punishment for the sign holding woman:
    "The spectator, a 31-year-old woman who has not been publicly identified, was found guilty by a criminal court in Brest of reckless endangerment and involuntarily causing injuries.

    The woman, who stepped onto the road during the race and had her back to the cyclists, was fined 1,200 euros, or about $1,350 — far less than the maximum penalties she was facing.

    The charges under consideration carried a possible one-year prison term and a fine of €15,000. At the woman’s trial, in October, prosecutors requested a four-month suspended prison sentence. She did not have a previous criminal record."

  6. The organizers did not check the security by posting guards on the road. There are no measures to protect the players, and it is not just a spectator problem.

  7. The stupid fan who caused this crash should be named and shamed and pursued for all eternity. She must pay.

  8. Are bikers like dumb or something? Like nobody NOBODDDYYYY saw her and couldn't yell MOVE! before they slammed into her? Smh i swear its like they all drive with their heads looking down. Smh 🤦‍♂️ also she's an idiot and should be charged something.. idk what, but something..

  9. She was only fined 1.2k euros for this. This is how we are as a society, far too soft on punishment. Don’t be surprised if this happens again.

  10. Most the idiot things in past years have almost all come from adults we literally hold children to higher standards than we do adults
