Axel Zingle sidelined for several weeks after crash in Itzulia Basque Country
Team Visma | Lease a Bike rider Axel Zingle will not be starting in Flèche Brabançonne, Amstel Gold Race, and Liège-Bastogne-Liège. The Frenchman crashed in the fifth stage of Itzulia Basque Country, where he suffered from a dislocated shoulder. Due to this injury, Axel is out of competition for several weeks.
Axel Zingle: "Of course it’s difficult not to be able to take part in the Flèche Brabançonne, Amstel Gold Race, and Liège–Bastogne–Liège. These races were really a main goal for me. My shoulder is still too fragile to race, so the focus is now on rehabilitation. Fortunately, I can tell that I’m recovering well, but these races are just coming too soon."
It is currently unclear when Axel will return to racing.
