I am glad to see you are not scoring goals, but I am surprised to see he
was wearing a number for identification. However, not being able to stop
in time suggests " brake failure "!

or riding too fast for the conditions

If he had kept up with the rest of the peleton ( gone faster ) the
incident would not have occurred.
