Tour de France: Carnage on the cobbles - Wout Van Aert and Primoz Roglic crash on awful day for Jumbo-Visma

A chaotic Stage 5 of the Tour de France proved to be something of a nightmare day for Team Jumbo-Visma. Having already seen race leader Wout van Aert crash and almost hit a car as he attempted to get back on his bike, the Dutch team then saw Primoz Roglic caught up in a crash involving a hay bale with 29km to go. Ad/> As Stefan Kung (Groupama–FDJ) led the pack through a roundabout, the Swiss rider clipped the corner of the bale, dragging it slightly into the path of Caleb Ewan (Lotto Soudal).

Although the Slovenian was able to get back on his bike, it meant Jumbo's leaders were left chasing to catch up with the pack. “Oh huge crash there," said Carlton Kirby on Eurosport's commentary.

The incident came just moments after another incident involving Jumbo's Jonas Vingegaard who had a mechanical issue on 37km, needing to swap his bike.
