Oh I'm sure they have lawyered up and been advised not to comment. Yes it's shocking, and arrogant that the incident even happened during the Tour, but really, it's not that much different from any other impatient motorist that accidently knocks down a cyclist, when if they could have slowed down or stopped until it was clear and safe to pass (God forbid it costs you 10 additional seconds to avoid an accident). I would not expect an apology, nor an admission of guilt. Surely they will have no contact with the victims, and will simply let the lawyers and insurance companies fight it out. How the driver will live with himself is another story.

The video is pretty damning evidence and I think they will be hard pressed to come up with a creative defense. Perhaps in a few days they will issue a statement.
