I was reading here about Ivan Basso on the third stage that he had crash and suffered a twist on his right hand and he want to the hospital in Aspen and to take an XRay of his right hand to see if anything is broking. Basso hand was not fractured and there was pain and the managment told basso just recover and see how you will feel the next day to see if you can race.
