VIDEO: Fan’s jacket causes nasty crash at World Champs with just 35 kms to go

Australian Marco Haller loses his temper after crash effectively ends his chances in the World Champion Elite Men's Road race

Bergen saw huge crowds across the whole of UCI World Championships and there were a few unfortunate crashes.

With just 35 kms to go, a spectator's jacket brought Marco Haller crashing down along with Jasper Stuyven, Tiesj Benoot and Jens Keukeleire.

Jasper Stuyven, Tiesj Benoot and Jens Keukeleire remounted and continued, but Haller who rides for Katusha-Alpecin was quite rightly annoyed by the incident and had some words to say to the fans.

Haller received a replacement bike and continued to finish the race over 9 minutes down on winner Peter Sagan.

Haller was extremely disappointed after racing for over 7 hours and being brought down.
