You're assuming that what this guy did is intentionally hit the two lead cyclists with his car. After all that's what the lily-white cycling "team" told us is what happened.

Maybe he just sped up to pass the mob, and misjudged his return to the right lane. Or maybe some contact was made with a little "assistance" on the part of the cyclists.

I find it absolutely unbelievable that this car-driving "homicidal madman" engaged 20 cyclists in vehicular combat and the only thing to show for it was a scratch on his car and two bruised cyclists.
