Following a relatively incident-free opening two weeks of the 2023 Tour de France, stage 14 of the race saw a number of key crashes which reduced the peloton by seven more riders.
A large pile-up early on the stage saw a number of riders hit the deck: Louis Meintjes (Intermarché-Circus-Wanty) and Esteban Chaves (EF Education-EasyPost) were two of the biggest names to withdraw from the race following a 20 minute neutralisation.
