Oops! Jan Ullrich Suffers Setback in Car Crash
Collision Occurs at Local Hospital Involving Vehicle - Hospital visit following vehicle collision
Hey there! Cycling icon Jan Ullrich (51) finds himself in a pickle after a car run-in while he was out training near his humble abode. Eurosport, our trusted source, claims his management confirms the unfortunate incident. Seems like the ex-pro took a hit from a car and, after a tumble, ended up with a snapped collarbone, some nasty bruises, and a few road rash scars. The mishap happened because another vehicle decided to ignore the right of way near his residence.
Initially, Jan was all set to grace the Eurosport "Velo Club" show this Saturday and Sunday, providing insights on the 2023 Giro d'Italia stages. But, with his sudden announcement, the appearances have been called off...the bummer of all bummers! Eurosport shared that, at the time of writing, Jan was still recuperating in the hospital on a Friday eve.
Big Cycling Bash Postponed?
This little hick-up couldn't have come at a worse time for our man Jan, considering his upcoming grand cycling festival in Bad Dürrheim, the Black Forest, slated for the following week. A slew of fellow cycling legends, including Lance Armstrong (53), Bradley Wiggins (45), Udo Bölts (58), and Andreas Klöden (49), were all set to join the party. As of now, it's uncertain if Ullrich will make it due to his injuries.
Jan Ullrich, a German cycling powerhouse, is often hailed as one of the greats. He bagged the Tour de France title in '97, making history as the first and only German to do so. He added a Olympic gold medal in the individual time trial at the '00 Sydney Games and two world championships to his list of accomplishments.
