Former world time trial champion Filippo Ganna became the first rider to abandon the 2025 Tour de France after crashing during stage one.

The Ineos Grenadiers rider was involved in the incident with 133 of the 184.5km stage remaining, going down with Sean Flynn (Picnic-PostNL) on a right hand corner. After a bike change, the Italian battled on valiantly, but kept returning to his team car, apparently talking to the doctor.
