I don't remember which team it was but I saw one rider had his hand on his teammate's shoulder as they rode up to the line- was that him? I couldn't tell if he had a hand/wrist problem or a rib problem, just that he was holding one arm up off the handlebars. It stinks for him to get all the way up to the Tour and have to abandon.

The only other rider that seemed to be in difficulty after the crash was Cancellara. I hope he's ok though I still hope Levi wins the Tour.
