Off the top of my head

Chris Boardman/Rolf Sörensen both broken collar bone?

@Netserk Voigt didn't retire he didnt make the time limit. And that was when he had already lost the jersey.

 

[Carlo Algatrensig]

Jens Voigt 2005 and Rasmussen 2007?

Voigt wrong and I forgot about Rasmussen so can I alter the question to say ignoring clinic reasons.

 

[Netserk]

@kingjr

You are right. I always remembered it as Voigt missing the time limit while wearing yellow

Boardman is right and there was another since sorensen and also why I said there was a link between the two.
