SpainJonas Vingegaard, the Danish cyclist who won the Tour de France in 2022 and 2023, abandoned the race after suffering a severe fall during stage 15. The incident occurred near the Plateau de Solaison climb in the Alps, where Vingegaard was leading his team, Visma Lease a Bike, in an attempt to launch an attack. He sustained a broken collarbone and was taken away by ambulance. Other teammates, including Isaac del Toro, were also affected but continued racing. Vingegaard had been second overall behind Tadej Pogacar, who remains undefeated in recent editions. This exit marks a significant setback for Vingegaard, who has struggled to keep pace with younger riders challenging his dominance.
