In detail, the tricolor double world champion fractured two ribs, which led to the perforation of a lung, which explains why he could no longer breathe immediately after the fall, as well as his shoulder blade. At his bedside very quickly after this one, Romain Bardet saw the extent of the damage and heard his compatriot and friend tell him that he could not “no more moving“. The Frenchman from the DSM then tried to call for help so that an intervention could be made quickly, but the help was blocked by cars and the many runners caught up in the incident.

A big scare for Alaphilippe
Later, VeloNews relayed an internal source at Quick-Step who explained that the runner was undergoing examinations at the hospital. After these, Alaphilippe will remain under observation. Its duration of unavailability is not known and will obviously depend on the degree of the various fractures. His next goal is none other than the Tour de France which starts on July 1st from Denmark, in just under ten weeks.
