Tour De France Described As The Worst Crash In History Of Sports (See Why)

The Tour de France was temporarily brought to a halt today after one of the worst crashes in the history of the race caused carnage on Stage Three. 

Riders were traveling flat out at up to 26mph when French rider William Bonnet clipped the wheel of fellow countryman Warren Barguil in front and was sent crashing to the tarmac. 

The fallen Bonnet caused those behind to come down too with officials immediately stopping the race as doctors and team members tended to the injured riders both on the tarmac and on the roadside. See more photos below;
