    Just awful. There’s bad luck and there’s incredibly stupid fans. This was both.

    Now that we’ve seen the fact they ran into the moto, I can’t see anything else but a neutralization

    Assume bike was broken.

    They have to neutralise it.

    What caused the crash? I am on German TV and can’t see why the motor bike stopped

    At least Froome doesn’t appear injured. I’d love to be a fly on the wall in Prudhomme’s caravan right now…

    It’s a tough call for the race officials. Do they cut the GC times at the bike crash timing, leave the results alone or give Froome the same time as Mollema?

    Yellow for Yates?

    Cut it at the crash, Mollema wouldn’t have gained time on Porte and Froome IMO.

    Yates in yellow according to the BBC radio that I was just listening to.

    We still haven’t seen why the moto stopped, have we? Everyone in the crowd was waving their phones – I’m sure footage will appear on YouTube.

    6km worth of crowd moved back down the road made it a bit of a squeeze

    Allow the stage results to stand but dont include the stage time in the GC?

    French TV says road was blocked by spectators so motobike had to stop – my wife (French) confirmed my understanding of what was said

    Should give froome and Porte same time as mollema

    Juan Antonio (on Eurosport), what a load of rubbish. Saying they shouldn’t adjust it as precedence from the past has been not to change the result when a moto has interfered with the race, but the circumstances very different today.

    This. Probably a narrow spot which normally has less people
