A Groupama-FDJ runner knocked down by a billboard

In the wrong place, at the wrong time.

On Friday, as he left the mixed zone to reach the start line of the seventh and penultimate stage of Paris-Nice, Kevin Geniets was knocked down by a billboard.

Kevin Geniets had to abandon from #ParisNice.

This happened just before the start of Paris-Nice stage 7 😳😣 @GenietsKevin.

Staying on the ground for a few minutes, the Groupama-FDJ rider still managed to get up and get back in the saddle but, hit in the ankle, the Luxembourger finally had to resign himself to giving up at the moment of the fictitious start.
