The eleventh stage of the
Giro d'Italia was not good for
Movistar Team. Óscar Rodríguez had to abandon after a hard fall that made him leave the Giro. In addition,
Fernando Gaviria also crashed at the end of the stage and arrived at the finish line in pain.
Thus, Rodriguez, after his blow, suffers from a kidney problem and will be reevaluated today. This is the medical report: He has a renal contusion, but his general condition is good although he could have damage to his ribs. He was initially diagnosed at the hospital in Tortona and was later transferred to the hospital in Novi Ligure, where he spent the night in hospital.
With regard to Fernando Gaviria, who we saw not being able to rest his right arm on the handlebars after the stage, it has been confirmed that he has not suffered any injury, so in principle he will be able to continue in the race. However, he suffers numerous superficial wounds and bruises all over his body.
