Cycling: According to La Gazetta dello Sport, former Italian world champion Mario Cipollini was hospitalized as a result of a training accident. On an exit near Lucca, he collided with a car.
As a result, the 47-year-old had to undergo surgery on his left knee. As a result, he will have to step back a little in the next two months, as he himself announced. “Regardless of the pain, I know that this injury will take a long time to heal. I will need crutches for more than 60 days before I can lead a normal life again."
Cipollini ended his extremely successful career with 191 victories in 2005 after 16 years in the professional peloton.
