Vingegaard reveals concussion from Paris-Nice fall
Denmark's two-time Tour de France winner Jonas Vingegaard revealed Monday that he suffered from a lengthy concussion after crashing during the Paris-Nice on March 13, leaving him feeling tired and nauseous for days afterwards.
Vingegaard will target a third Tour de France win this summer after his 2022 and 2023 wins on a route which favours his climbing skills.
But the concussion has scuppered his original build-up programme and he was replaced by teammate Simon Yates as Visma team leader for the Tour of Catalunya, which started Monday.
"After the crash I was dizzy, and after the stage I got very nauseous and was incredibly tired, which continued for the next several days," Vingegaard told the Danish daily BT of his recent fall.
"I’m happy to be back on the bike, even though it took a little longer than hoped because of my concussion, which has required a lot of rest," he explained.
Vingergaard placed an impressive second on the 2024 Tour de France after a life-threatening crash at the Tour of the Basque Country hospitalised him for 12 days last April.
He later admitted he considered walking away from cycling at that time.
And the steady mannered Dane is taking no chances on his health this time.
"For now, we'll take things day by day and let rehabilitation decide if we need to make any changes or additions to my programme."
