Caisse d'Epargne suffered a big loss today in the Tour de France.

Spanish rider Xabier Zandio of Caisse d'Epargne had to drop out of the Tour de France because of a crash in the fourth stage of the race.

Zandio crashed barely 70km into the 193km stage.

Team manager Jose-Luis Jaimerena said: "He's broken his right collarbone, it's impossible for him to carry on."

Sorry to hear this news. Best wishes to Xabier for a speedy recovery.
