Not content with getting close to taking the yellow jersey a couple of times on Tour de France 2022, EF Education-EasyPost have come up with even more drama for the new Tour Netflix series..... by get its team bus stuck on the way to today's start.

As the video below shows, the front of the bus has made contact with the road going downhill and around a tight bend on the way to the start of stage 10 today in Morzine.

It appears the large bus has blocked the passage of other team vehicles - with Tour riders inside - as they tried to make their way to the start of the 148km stage to Megève.

In the clip below - shared by cycling journalist Chris Marshall-Bell - what looks like most of the QuickStep Alpha Vinyl team can be seen riding around the bus, with big backpacks on, after they took to their bikes to make sure they made the start on time.

While the incident is not quite up there with the best "team bus stuck at the Tour de France" stories of recent years - the Orica GreenEdge bus becoming wedged under the finish line gantry in 2013 - how it will impact the start today remains to be seen.
