This Tour de France has been marked by spectator-related crashes and incidents and on yesterday's final mountain stage it was no exception. Valentin Madouas was brought down by the flag of a fan on the side of the road.
Similar to Lilian Calmejane earlier in the race, the flag caused the French champion to lose control of the bike and hit the deck. Luckily, as he was riding uphill, the speed of the crash led it to be low consequence. Madouas rode to 28th in the finish.
