'race crash' is bad but this story includes 'induced coma'
and 'facial surgery'.

Made me sick watching. Talk of the day here of course since both Dutch. Sprinters are crazy, all of them. Although the consequences were terrible (scattered palate and larynx and every other bone in his face was broken) the incident was not that unusual (Sagan did the same to Cavendish two years ago in the TdF). It is a reflex many sprinters have. Groenewegen is butchered now. End of his season and maybe end of his career as sprinter. Same goes for Jakobsen of course.
