Dowsett had a mechanical. Luca Covili missed the cut, 7.14 down. He spent more time packing his bags than he did on the race.
Lopez was pushing so hard not to miss the cut he crashed....
Covili is still showing on the GC in 175th, which suggests he might not have been kicked out of the race.
I read a tweet suggesting he had to change bikes twice due to mechanicals (though that alone surely can't explain a 7 minute deficit on a 15km stage).
