Jonas Vingegaard, after the shock crash at the Tour of the Basque Country, remains in hospital. Further tests to which the Danish runner was subjected also highlighted a pneumothorax and a pulmonary contusion, in addition to the fractures of the clavicle and ribs already diagnosed yesterday.

The president of the Italian Cycling Federation, Cordiano Dagnoni, comments on the falls that have occurred in various professional races in recent days. "You cannot simply point the finger at someone or something," he says.
