Ruben Guerreiro given yellow card for sparking Tour of Oman stage 2 crash

A crash during stage 2 of the Tour of Oman led to Movistar's Ruben Guerreiro being given a yellow card.

Ruben Guerreiro (Movistar Team) became the 10th person to receive a yellow card from the UCI for safety rule violations. The Portuguese rider was penalised for a "deviation from the chosen line that obstructs or endangers another rider or irregular sprint" during stage 2 of the Tour of Oman on Sunday.

Guerreiro was initially awarded the same time as the chasing group behind stage winner Louis Vervaeke (Soudal-QuickStep) after being involved in the incident along with several other riders but was later given the yellow card under the UCI's new safety measures.
