Yeah. In his defense, he did crash hard the day before the tour started. He was out training on his time trial bike and the team car in front of him unexpectedly had to slow down, and he ran straight into it--hard. He went clear through the rear window. Didnt really hurt him, he only needed a couple stitches, but I suppose he could just be sore, and that would dampen the morale a bit. But still no excuse for the trouncing Lance gave him, and he stated that in interviews after the stage. Like I said, I think he's out of this race.
