Quintana out of Tour of Spain after another fall

NAIRO Quintana crashed out of the Tour of Spain yesterday after the Colombian Movistar rider suffered a second fall in as many days during the 11th stage.

Quintana was leading the overall standings heading into Tuesday’s time trial but a spectacular high-speed tumble led to him dropping down to 11th, nearly 3-1/2 minutes behind Spaniard Alberto Contador, who took over the leader’s red jersey. Quintana “feels pain in his right-hand shoulder and has been moved by ambulance to a medical center to check on any fractures,” Movistar said on its Twitter feed.
