Juan Ayuso built his season around the Vuelta a Espana, but saw his participation at risk for a few hours. He was on his way to win the Prueba Villafranca but crashed in the final corner. However, after some concerning images, UAE Team Emirates have cleared the Spaniard of meaningful injuries.
The team shared the following message on social media: "Update: Juan Ayuso who had been in a leading duo with Lazkano slid in the final corner and crashed on the rain-soaked tarmac. He was able to remount and hang on for 3rd place and thankfully did not suffer any serious injury, escaping with a bruised left knee and some abrasions."
