I'm confused about what you're confused about. Phil crashed hardcore at San Dimas years before that and that probably set him back a lot on his journey, and some of the other crashes in races he had seemed to be at inopportune times.
Kind of like the velodrome crash. Something is looking on the up and up and a bad crash happens. I feel for the guy.
Look. I didn't know the man existed until a week ago...much less that he wrote ass calculus books.
