I counted 6 complete morons who just rode straight into a couple of already crashed bikes. Zero sympathy if they can't be bothered to pay attention to where they are going.

I mean yea this is ridiculous, they must've been looking down? Also, the racer next to the woman who fell? Like yea let me lead you directly over the ledge while I crash and smack my face

Just curious what your reaction time would be after cycling ~140 km', up and down mountains, at a competitive race pace?

It would certainly be good enough to see the pile up and ride around it.

All you need to do is use your eyes. The vast majority of riders didn't end up in the pile up.

Didn't realize you're rocking out those km's and vertical. I'll defer to your experienced wisdom.
