In 2019, Chris Froome crashed whilst doing a recon of the Criterium du Dauphiné time-trial after being blown out by a gust of wind.
INEOS Grenadiers were awaken to that possibility as the exact same happened to
Tom Pidcock at
Itzulia Basque Country, but the Briton has luckily avoided major injuries,
“I would like to thank everyone for the messages. Unfortunately I couldn't start in the Tour of the Basque Country after a fall during reconnaissance. I was surprised by a gust of wind," Pidcock said in a message shared on social media.“Scans have not revealed any fractures, but we will have to wait and see in the coming days. I don't feel so good right now.”
