Alessandro

Milram's Alessandro Petacchi will quit the second Grand Tour this year
because of a broken bone. The sprinter, who had just recovered from a
knee fracture he suffered at the start of the Giro d'Italia - ruining
his racing program from May to August - broke his hand after stage 15
on Sunday.

After the finish in Almussafes, Petacchi slammed his right fist into
the team bus, out of anger and frustration because he got fenced in the
sprint earlier on. This outburst caused the fracture.

It would have been even cooler if he'd tipped the bus over by himself.

he's just frustrated... having a bum season, and now he probably feels
like an idiot. So much for the worlds.
