Bora-Hansgrohe Sports Director Rolf Aldag has commended Jai Hindley for not sitting up and calling his fight for the Tour de France podium done after being injured in a crash that neutralized the early part of stage 14.

The Australian was hurt in the mass pileup that saw many abandonments but finished the stage in sixth place behind stage winner Carlos Rodríguez (Ineos Grenadiers).
