Movistar reported about the accident via
social media: "The under-23 time trial world champion suffered a training accident on time trial bike last Saturday. Examined in the following hours, the first checks did not reveal fractures although his start at the Baloise Belgium Tour, scheduled to start on Wednesday, will not take place and he will compete again on another date. The Italian, who has been at his home since yesterday, will continue to undergo various evaluations this week to assess other injuries."
