No good news from within the INEOS Grenadiers camp yet, as Egan Bernal has not yet made the trip to Europe and is at risk of missing out on Paris-Nice as well.
The Colombian crashed on the opening day of the Vuelta a San Juan, and a knee injury has surfaced from it. The INEOS rider abandoned the race on the last day as he was inside the Top5 of the overall classification. He missed the Vuelta a Andalucia in February, and his European season debut may yet be delayed again as Gazzetta dello Sport's Ciro Scognamiglio reports that Paris-Nice "is still a question mark".

The team reported that the injury was not related to last year's crash during his off-season which changed the younger's life. That is relative good news as it may not indicate a serious long-term injury, but nevertheless the delay justifies concerns.
Bernal continues to be in frequent and deep contact with the team as he continues his recovery from the injury back in Colombia. His plans for the spring and summer depend on a full rehabilitation.
