Magnus Cort likely to miss the Milano-Sanremo with fractured thumb
CyclingTuesday, 12 March 2024 at 05:30
Magnus Cort broke his thumb in a fall in Tirreno-Adriatico. The new acquisition of Uno-X Mobility won't be in the action for the time being and can probably forget about a participation at Milano-Sanremo.
Cort crashed on Saturday in the penultimate stage of Tirreno-Adriatico, which arrived on the flanks of Monte Petrano. The 31-year-old all-rounder suffered a fracture in his thumb and had to throw in the towel early. "We wish Magnus a quick and complete recovery," Uno-X Mobility said via X.
The 31-year-old rider with the striking mustache has been an consistent presence in the Italian classic in recent years. In 2018 he already finished eighth in La Primavera, the year before he finished eleventh.
Cort is still looking for his first win of the season and for his new Norwegian team. He already rode to places of honor at the Étolie de Bessèges and the Volta ao Algarve. He was also 27th in Strade Bianche more than a week ago.

- It's not a big blow for Pogacar. Today, Pogacar relies on a close, increasingly Slovenian circle of experts. Among them, the central figure is his longtime friend Ziga Jerman, who took on the role of masseur in 2025. Jerman has known Pogačar since before his global fame, when they cycled together at the Ljubljana club Rog, so Elguezabal’s departure does not pose a threat for Pogi but rather marks the end of a very successful chapter. UAE will have to fill the gap in its professional staff, but for Pogi, this departure will not play an important role.NikkoNicco04-12-2025
- OK, enough of this BS. No one went to college or university from kindergarten. First, Remco must graduate from high school with excellent results to meet with the professor Pogacar in university and to be in same room with him. But you see, Pogi the Great also has a PhD (doctorate in cycling). In 2026, I want to see that success from Remco in high school, because I haven't seen it in these 7 years.NikkoNicco04-12-2025
- calling him a star in cross before he beats MVDP or WVA is also a big stretch.mij04-12-2025
- I think once he's the undisputed leader in a race, he can become more consistent than he was in the past.Ride197404-12-2025
