Cycling stars Jonas Vingegaard and Jay Vine hospitalised after sickening crash during Itzulia Basque Country race

Jonas Vingegaard has been taken to hospital along with leading Australian rider Jay Vine after some of the world’s best cyclists suffered injuries in a bad mass crash at high speed in the Itzulia Basque Country race in Spain. The reigning double Tour de France champion Vingegaard was reported by his Visma-Lease a Bike team to have suffered a broken collar bone and several ribs but was “conscious” after the alarming crash which threatens his hopes of a famous treble in July.

The leaders were making a sweeping right-hand turn on a slight but swift descent, with some sliding off, sending others off the road too into the ditch. Denmark’s Vingegaard, who’s been in spectacular form and was favourite for the 2024 Tour de France, had to be carried to the ambulance in a neck brace and needed oxygen after treatment at roadside by doctors.
