Anybody catch the make of that front wheel? 
Looks like Rolf maybe?

Doesn't look like any Rolf I've seen. Looks like one of those furrin'

This is certainly why we require helmets in competition.

Also a case against low spoke count wheels.

#13 is the money shot.   This is a fairly good reason to wear a
helmet.  Also note the spokes flying wild, totally disconnected from
the rim.
