Resolves according to media reports. 'Seriously', 'severely', 'critically', and other cognates all resolve YES. Injuries have to be explicitly mentioned by a press article or video.
For this market (unlike the reckless spectator one), neither rider nor spectator have to be at fault.
This market, like all other markets in the Tour de France group, counts toward the 2023 TDF tournament. See here for prizes. Good luck!

Could have resolved YES but it seems like the spectator is fine.
Would this article https://www.cbssports.com/general/news/tour-de-france-2022-daniel-oss-fractures-neck-after-crashing-with-spectators-during-race/
have met the criteria for this question (had it been for the 2022 race instead of the 2023 race)?
I’m wondering especially about these lines and the following video: “The 35-year-old Italian cyclist first hit a spectator wearing a yellow shirt, but he lost more control of the bike after crashing into another individual who was leaning forward and using a phone to record the race.
That bystander was looking the opposite way, and when he finally turned his head, it was already too late to move back.”
It says crashed for example - which sounds violent but doesn’t necessarily imply a ‘serious’ injury. More pertinently, given the video (showing a crash with the spectator being knocked over), it feels like it’s implied that this is a ‘serious’ crash, even though it isn’t explicitly stated.
@JakeTeale Neck fracture is serious enough to me. Yes. But here it seems it’s the rider not the spectator who got injured?
@NicoDelon Yeah, the rider suffered the neck fracture, so that wouldn’t meet the criterion. I suppose my question is about the grey area with the spectator: we aren’t told any of his injuries (if he had any at all) but we are given a video that looks (to me) like a ‘serious’ crash. Would that be sufficient to make the question resolve YES?
More broadly, would a video (assuming it is in media report) ever be enough on its own to make the question resolve yes?
@JakeTeale The condition of the spectator would have to be explicitly mentioned by the article or video. So in that case would resolve NO.
