Smith finished 6th yet again but his effort was effected, Smith unfortunately had a crash on the bike which caused a mechanical and sent him back into the chase pack. It was on a section of tile on the course where nearly everyone went down on the first lap, it was just unlucky that it also damaged his bike so he had to take time getting back on.
