Tour de France: Primoz Roglic dislocates - and puts back in - shoulder after hitting a hay bale on Stage 5

Primoz Roglic discolated his shoulder on stage 5 of the Tour de France — before putting it back in himself at the roadside. Even more remarkable was that Roglic sat himself down on a spectator's chair to perform the manoeuvre, which came as a result of a crash involving a stray hay bale on an extraordinary day of racing.

Ad/> The riders were navigating a roundabout with around 29km of the stage to go, when Stefan Kung (Groupama–FDJ) clipped the bale — already in the road — into the path of the pack behind. Caleb Ewan (Lotto Soudal) hit it and went down, appearing to take Roglic with him.

Roglic ended the day 2m36 down in the General Classification and his hopes of winning the Tour must surely now be in doubt — as may his continuing participation in the race.

It was a day to forget in general for Roglic's Team Jumbo-Visma, with yellow jersey Wout van Aert crashing and Jonas Vingegaard also having a bike swap drama. Van Aert managed to recover to retain the lead of the race, but only by 13 seconds from EF Education-Easypost's Neilson Powless.
