Team dsm-firmenich PostNL confirms Max Poole's absence from Giro d'Italia: "We hoped he would be there to learn from Romain Bardet, but he still is on the mend"

In accordance with the expectations, Max Poole won't be a part of Team dsm-firmenich PostNL's lineup for Giro d'Italia starting next Saturday. His team made the young Brit's withdrawal official on Friday. However a broken elbow suffered at Tirreno-Adriatico made it impossible for the 21-year-old to prepare accordingly for the second Grand tour of his career.
"We hoped Max Poole would be at the Giro d'Italia where he could support and learn from Romain Bardet in the GC but he still is on the mend," the team clarified in X post. This is only of the many blows for the Dutch team, which also has to replace Poole's compatriot Oscar Onley in the selection for the Italian Grand tour.

- 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

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.
