'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.

That is racing. If it wasn't dangerous it wouldn't be such a popular sport.

Lots of videos of the crash on YouTube

Slow motion at the start crash about 30 seconds into the video.

I don't don't even see why cycle racing has to be a contact sport, never mind a blood sport.

Cycle racing has been made a blood sport by incompetent management.

I have to disagree with you there. Are you suggesting that management enforce social distancing?
