The American rider hits the front of the car before rolling up the windscreen and onto the roof, almost managing to land on his feet as he comes to ground on the pavement at the side of the car.

Although he didn’t finish the stage, Craddock was not seriously injured in the crash, with the car arguably coming off second best with a dent in the bonnet and a smashed windscreen.

Tweeting after the stage, Craddock said that the crash had been caused by an Euskadi-Murias rider discarding his water bottle in the middle of the bunch.
