Accident in Zurich
Crash at World Cycling Championships: Alaphilippe has to retire
An unpleasant scene from the World Cycling Championship road race in Zurich. Julian Alaphilippe crashed and suffered a shoulder injury, forcing him to retire. The dream of a third world championship title is thus shattered.
The accident happened relatively early. The 32-year-old crashed after just 218 kilometers. He remained lying on the asphalt, writhing in pain and had to be treated - for his shoulder. It soon became clear that the star of the scene would not be able to continue. He had to retire. The dream of a third world championship title was shattered. Alaphilippe had already been crowned world champion in 2020 and 2021.
18-year-old dies
It is the next serious crash at the World Championships (which fortunately did not end fatally). Just last week, 18-year-old Muriel Furrer had a fatal accident. The World Championships were continued at the request of her family.
