Elisa Longo Borghini will not start stage 6 of the Giro d'Italia Donne following a heavy fall on the descent toward Tuesday's finish line in Ceres, with her Lidl-Trek team saying that the rider is in considerable pain after the crash.
Longo Borghini was taken to hospital for an x-ray of her pelvis and right shoulder on Tuesday after the stage, which Lidl-Trek said that evening had ruled out the presence of fractures.
