Good chance that's because of the thousands of insanely drunk idiots.

Probabily not  I think that Italian TV will show the crash hundreds of times, we'll see

This vague video definitely suggests Nibali fell because the motorbike riders got in trouble with all those drunk idiots on the side of the road.

Apparently Nibali got his time back from the jury. Now we wait for Vuillermoz to get his Tour de France back from the jury, after also falling because of idiots on the side of the road  

 

Plus I'm guessing this means every single time a rider falls due to spectators, they will now get their time back.

Great, so it should be easy enough to attack the bottom of the climb like a man possesed, and then pay some spectator to push you down so that you consequently get the winner's time.

Once upon a time 10 hours ago, Rein Taaramäe was a once slightly promising GC rider now standing in 4th place in the mountains classification after some pretty decent stages, including 3rd in Le Grand-Bornand two days ago. Today he finished outside the time limit.
