Remco Evenepoel Crashes Off Bridge At Il Lombardia

Aug 15, 2020

Race favorite Remco Evenepoel was injured when he crashed over a bridge before plunging several metres down into a ravine in a horrifying accident on Saturday at the 2020 Tour of Lombardy. Belgian Evenepoel, 20, lost control on the steep descent from the Colma di Sormano that leads to the race finish at Lake Como, hitting a parapet and plunging over the bridge.

He is at the Como hospital, where he is conscious and his condition is being assessed by the medical team," tweeted his Deceuninck-QuickStep team. "Thanks to everyone who sent their thoughts and best wishes it means a lot to us! At the same time, we kindly ask you not to speculate about his condition, when we'll have an update, we will share it with you."
