The chaos of the race around the Basque Country continues

Spanish cyclist Mikel Landa (Soudal Quick-Step) is the latest “victim” of this year’s Tour of the Basque Country, having been forced to withdraw from further participation following a fall on the fifth stage from Vitoria-Gasteiz to Amorebieta-Etxan run today.

The television footage shows how the medical team brings Landa into the ambulance on a stretcher and with a protective collar in place. The organizers of the race announced that several riders fell near Manaria, as alongside the Spaniard his co-driver Gil Gelders also crashed out. This comes after the two-time winner of the Tour D’France and the defending champion of this race, Denmark’s Jonas Wingegaard, Belgium’s Remko Evenepoel and Slovenia’s Primož Roglic withdrew from the race yesterday due to serious injuries after falling at high speed.
