At least he didn't jumped off the cliff. I don't know how he was expecting to take the turn at such speed.

For those who are wondering, he has a brocken pelvis, brocken ribs and a lung perforation. But no brocken spine, which is good news.

A Special note for the bike that got away after being hit ...

I think at this near tragic moment a special mention should be given to the two poor barsteards who also crashed into a motorbike. :S

#4 You have it right. That rider was going way to fast and would have probably crashed regardless - car, tree, off the side of the mountain. That rider was going to crash one way or another. Far too much speed for that corner.

It looks like he was aiming for the red car parked on the side of the road and the white porsche got in the way.
You can see the spray of water go flying from his water bottle right after he hits. :S
Hope he mends well enough to cycle again some day. :)

#8 Now I understand, they are supposed to run all other competitors down :x Seriously, looks like several of them can't estimate these situations. And they must never compromise the other bikers's race.

[I used to ride competitively] based on the sag cars in this race, this HAS to be a pro race, which means he absolutely did know how to take the turn. #13 Some riders take turns more aggressively than others to gain seconds or fractions of a second (if a rider is in a competitive position in the race and need to make up time).

#1 #2 #5 and #13 I'm almost positive that he had some sort of brake failure, he was moving at full speed and he lost control right before hitting the car because he pulled back on the handlebars, lifting his front tire up. TBH, that Porsche could have saved his life (I'm assuming he survived :S ) - professional racers die way too often when descending a mountain and some sort of failure (person or bike) sends them off the side. I hope he recovered.
