For the second one it looked like he either hit a slick spot in the road or he was braking too hard. You'll hear a lot of stories about the roads "melting" in the heat at the TDF.
yeah, the first one he completely missed the line. the second crash, as he said, he was trying to take it easy and braked too hard on the front wheel on a rough road and he leaned the bike too far. the roads there are just too narrow.
