Soudal Quick-Step rider Gianmarco Garofoli was left "helpless, fragile and completely overwhelmed" after being struck by a hit and run driver while training on the island of Tenerife yesterday, he revealed on social media.
The 23-year-old Italian, fresh from riding the AlUla Tour with the Belgian team, was training in Teide National Park when he was struck by a car from behind at what he described as high speed. He appears to have escaped with only superficial injury but was left traumatised by the incident.
