That's what it looked like to me. Either that or arse lost contact with saddle due to big finishing watts. Didn't look like a mechanical failure.
I thought that or hit his knee on the bars somehow? Either way it was a pretty ragged finish before he crashed. The cloud of sand as he hit the deck was quite something
