Jonas Vingegaard crashed near the end of Sunday’s 15th stage of the Tour de France and had to pull out of the race.
The two-time Tour champion was among a few riders who fell close to a curb some 20 kilometers (about 12 miles) from the end of the stage. After a few moments, he limped into an ambulance with his right arm in a sling.
Vingegaard rides for the Visma–Lease a Bike team and was in second place behind defending champion Tadej Pogacar heading into Stage 15, which finished with a big climb.
The 29-year-old Danish rider won the Tour in 2022 and ’23 and is one of only eight male riders to have won all three Grand Tours.
