Stuart O'Grady (CSC) was able to start stage 4 in Huy, despite breaking one of his vertebrae in a crash during yesterday's third stage. "Stuart is in pain, but we all hope that he will continue to race," Team CSC's Brian Nygaard told Cyclingnews. "The pain is bearable for him, and he decided to continue. We'll see how it goes inside the bunch today. We don't expect him to sprint in Saint Quentin though, that would not be fair." Both he and his team will see how he holds up in the coming days, as to whether he can finish the Tour.
