Tiesj Benoot had a lucky escape after crashing on a descent at the Tour de France
Tiesj Benoot (Team Sunweb) was fortunate to escape serious injury after flipping over a barrier on Stage 4 at the Tour de France.
The 26-year-old was part of a six-man breakaway when, with 26 kilometres remaining, he misjudged a sweeping corner on a descent.
Benoot’s bike latched onto the road barrier before he was launched onto a grass verge.
Fortunately he was able to continue, although he was quickly swallowed up the peloton.
Benoot won the 2018 edition of Strade Bianche.
