Six riders from the German National track team were injured when an elderly driver collided with their training group in Mallorca. While some riders suffered fractures, medical evaluations confirmed that none of their injuries were life-threatening. The incident echoes a previous training crash in Valencia that resulted in serious injuries to six cyclists. Among the injured are notable riders such as Benjamin Boos and Bruno Kessler, both medalists from the previous year's World Track Championships. They were training for upcoming championships in Belgium when the crash occurred on a quiet backroad.
The incident occurred when the driver, an elderly man, failed to see the group of riders, resulting in a collision that left several hospitalized.
Initial reports suggest that the riders were on a quiet backroad training when the elderly driver's vehicle collided with them, echoing past training accidents.
