Stage stats

Velonews seems to be a good source for the medical reports and jury decisions of each stage that I can't find routinely posted elsewhere. I wish they would post them officially on the Tour website, but they don't seem to make them available online (unless I'm just looking in the wrong place). Here's part of the report for stage 10:

The peloton: No abandons. The peloton is now 171 riders.

Medical report:
Cobo (Saunier Duval-Prodir) crash in first kilometer, pain in hip and coccyx
Cancellara (CSC) insect bite
Voeckler (Bouygues Telecom) insect bite
Gutierrez (Caisse d'Epargne) crash at 37km, cuts and scrapes on both hands, right elbow
Calzati (Ag2r) pain in both knees and Achilles tendon
Anton (Euskaltel) crash at 69km without complications
Verbrugghe (Cofidis) pain in right knee
Vinokourov (Astana) persistent pain in both knees

Jury decisions:
Moreau (Ag2r) fined 100 CHF for not signing in

Comments:
CHF?
 
Confederazione Helvetica (Swiss) Franc - which is the official currency of the Tour, I believe, which makes no sense at all!
 
and everything else about teh tour makes sense?
 
Heh, it's in France in the summer - why should anything make sense!?? :-)
