Vingegaard brings curtain down on season
The 29-year-old Dane enjoyed a successful campaign before his crash last month, highlighted by victory in the Giro d'Italia in May.
Paris: Visma-Lease a bike, the team of two-time Tour de France champion Jonas Vingegaard, announced on Monday that the Danish rider will not compete in any races this season due to a lingering collarbone injury sustained during the Tour de France. The 29-year-old rider had enjoyed a successful campaign, culminating in a May victory at the Giro d'Italia.
However, after an intense racing period, including a crash during the Tour de France, Vingegaard's team confirmed that his training has been delayed and he is unlikely to return to top level performance in the near future. Instead, the focus will be on preparing for Vingegaard's goals in the 2027 season. The injury also means Vingegaard will miss the world and European championships, as he rarely participates in one-day Classics.
