A mum-of-two cyclist fatally collided with a sound truck after a rival allegedly cut her up during a race.
The horror unfolded as the competitors sprinted towards the finish line.
Footage taken by a spectator appears to show how a cyclist went too close in front of Jaiane Souza Oliveira Fernandes after passing her.

The manoeuvre forced Jaiane, 34, to swerve into a sound truck parked on the race track in Baianópolis, north of Belo Horizonte, Brazil.
The impact caused a speaker stack from the truck to fall on top of her on Sunday (28 Jul).
Another competitor also collided with the sound truck and was knocked off their bike but was unharmed.
Onsite medics rushed towards Jaiane and gave her first aid, as reported on Need To Know.
She was then taken to a local hospital in critical condition, but she sadly died there a short while later.
When police inspectors arrived on the scene to investigate, the sound truck was no longer there.
Jaiane was deeply passionate about cycling and often took part in local cycling competitions.
She leaves behind a husband, who also took part in Sunday’s competition, and twin boys.
The organisers, Dubai Bikers, wrote on social media: “The loss of this special person leaves a deep void in our hearts.
“May her memories and legacy bring comfort and strength.”
Jaiane’s funeral, attended by dozens of fellow cyclists, was held in Luís Eduardo Magalhães on Monday (29 Jul).
The police in Baianópolis are investigating the case.
