The majority of the peloton was wiped out in a horror crash at the Tour of Flanders after a rider hit a puddle and veered into his rivals. Polish rider Filip Maciejuk (Bahrain Victorious) was attempting to move up in the pack with 140km remaining by taking an off-road route but ran out of room, hitting a sodden grassy bank and careering into the bunch. Ad A concertina effect was sparked in the peloton, causing dozens of riders to hit the deck and sparking a shocking tangle of limbs and carbon fibre.
