While Tadej Pogačar's crash at Strade Bianche provided the most dramatic moment of the day, he was far from the only victim on the brutal 213km route, with only 98 riders making it to the finish in Siena and a vast list of injuries being confirmed after the dust settled on a crash-filled edition.
Strade Bianche is no stranger to crashes, with the narrow gravel tracks and high speeds on dusty asphalt roads often leading to several incidents. However, when the live broadcast started, it was a shock to see only 30-40 riders remaining in the peloton.
