Filippo Zana becomes second Jayco AlUla rider to abandon on stage 5 of the Vuelta a Espana

It's fair to say that stage 5 of the 2023 Vuelta a Espana has not been a day for Team Jayco AlUla. After Eddie Dunbar crashed in the neutralised zone and was forced to abandon, Filippo Zana has now also left the race.
Unlike his Irish team leader, Zana's abandon doesn't come off the back of a crash. Instead, the Italian has departed the final Grand Tour of the season with a stomach bug.
"Unfortunately Filippo Zana has also abandoned the race on stage 5 after suffering with stomach issues," an official post from the Team Jayco AlUla's social media team reveals. "We will provide a further medical update on Zana and Dunbar following the stage."

- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
- Amazing ride by her and very promising for her future. On a side note, it’s a bit worrying all these wins riders have after emotional moments in their lives, someone will come up with emotional doping at some point. Maybe give them fake news just before a big race to get hormones pumping.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
