Danish rider Magnus Cort Nielsen, who was one of the sensations of Tour de France last edition. He was one of the most combative riders there, securing a KOM jersey while racing in his native country Denmark and winning stage 10 from a breakaway before eventually being forced to drop out from the race.
For this season, the 30 years old EF Education-EasyPost rider was expected to make his debut in Challenge Mallorca at the end of this month. But he has been dealing with knee problems that forced him to postpone his debut.
“I have some problems with a knee that doesn't do what I want, for quite a while now. I don't know when I will start my season now. At least not here in Mallorca, which was the intention”, reveled Cort in an Instagram post on his personal page there.
The EF Education-EasyPost rider is one of the riders that team puts hopes in securing a stage win for this year's Giro d'Italia and Tour de France editions. The experienced rider has been perfecting the stage hunter skill for the couple last years, and it is one of the strongest riders in breakaways in today's cycling. But his pre-season has been plagued by some knee problems, still the Danish feels confident and says that his knee problems have been improving since they appeared.
“It's starting to feel better, and I'm already riding some laps with the guys here at the training camp, but after that I'll return home earlier but nothing is so bad that it is not good for anything” he concluded on his Instagram post, still not being sure when he will make his 2023 season debut.

What a joke u are Best part of all this was you no jonas is alot better then proceeeds to say he beat him with 19 sec on two stages hahahahaha. Del toro won stages and dropped him amny times even and their trajectory is self explanory. And oh yes he climbed better than jonas did all year in dauphine, the numbers never lie keep living in 2023 and be shocked. Cba talking with somoene who cant even deal with common sense. be objective to factual numbers even, waste of time hahamiguel14-11-2026

- they have no expertise with classics, they have no leaders in classics. the classics is dominated by the few Fuori Classe riders where other riders are left with scraps. the Hiring , the salaries dont make sense at all. Same problem as Man Utd. over paid players, egos, very little performanceabstractengineer13-11-2026

- I'm not trying to argue with you but if you didn't see Del Toro struggling in the Tour I'll pay for some glasses for you lol. He struggled so much that Tadej missed winning stage 15, Tadej also dropped the pace along some stages to help Del Toro hold onto the podium. Now he may have been sick, that is a possibility, but he definitely struggled. You have a nice weekend as well brother.awp13-11-2026
- Im not copmaring him to jonas palmares...but current level of power and again like you even pointed out 19sec difference and on other ocassions del toro dropping him. Its evidently their close and based on both their different trajectory its self explanatory...where we are next year.And Del Toro didnt struggle if getting a podium in his first TDF at 22 year old is struggling you sure dont know how to be objective haha. But have a good weekend this is so dumb to discuss as its not even a discussin in reality as facts speak for themselves of what were actually speaking of - and self explanatory.miguel13-11-2026

- This Giro is very strange in it's circular route. If you were to have stage starting in Trieste and ending atop Monte Zoncolan (end stage 20) you'd get a stage only 145 km long
