Wout van Aert: 'I cannot train at all' - Visma-Lease a Bike star confirms Giro d’Italia withdrawal
"Wout van Aert has confirmed he will miss the Giro d’Italia to prioritise his recovery from a huge crash at Dwars door Vlaanderen last month. The Belgian had targeted the first Grand Tour of the season as one of his big priorities this year, but having broken his collarbone and several ribs, he has not been able to train, leading to his withdrawal from the Giro, which starts on May 4."
Wout van Aert will not go to the Tour of Italy soon. The 29-year-old Kempenaar will not have recovered sufficiently from his serious crash in Dwars Door Vlaanderen. Frenchman Christophe Laporte will replace him.
Het is beslist: Wout van Aert gaat straks niet naar de Ronde van Italië. Onze 29-jarige landgenoot zal niet voldoende hersteld zijn van zijn zware valpartij in Dwars Door Vlaanderen. De Fransman Christophe Laporte is zijn vervanger.
