Ouch. I missed all that carnage. Only saw the last crash within 15 to go. Hope they all recover ok.

I'm with blondey on this. People don't crash themselves out like that for no reason. There's no way she'd have flown into the downed riders if she was aware. Presume she's looked up last second and thought shit, ooh I can make that, nope. Down. Or she didn't look up at all. (Olympic TP anyone?)

Sorry didn't mean to directly reply to your comment but she was aware in this interview that there was a crash and sorta thought she'd make it through "A"gap.

Anyone see a gap in the video here?

So instead of saying I made a bad decision she puts a post on social media she didn't realise rider's were down and not her fault.

Never admit fault in an accident. That's rule #1

She can be aware of a crash and still not be aware of riders down in front of her. You don't just jam on the anchors every time you hear carbon hitting the road.
