After watching the footage from every angle available, this has got to be the most bizzare series of crashes I have ever seen.
1. Roglic had his backwheel slip in the bend.
2. Remco made it past the bend and had a good line when suddenly the Trek rider behind him had a backwheel slip and nudges Remco as he was falling, causing Remco to deviate into the woods.
3. Vingegaard came in with speed together with a bunch of riders almost covering the width of the road leaving him suboptimal outside lines to pick from, he tried to corner, hesitated, and rode into the road sign post which caused him to fall off the bike ending up next to the concrete roadside drain.
That corner looked very deceptive from the overhead shots, no rider mentioned anything about the road surface in the descent being slippery.
