Cyclist Fabio Jakobsen in Good Condition After Waking Up from Medically-induced Coma
Dutch cyclist Fabio Jakobsen, who was put in a medically-induced coma after crashing at the finish line in the Tour of Poland’s first stage on Wednesday, is awake and in good condition, tour organizers said on Friday. Jakobsen, who rides for the Deceuninck-Quick Step team, was trying to jostle into position with competitor Dylan Groenewegen in the final metres of the race, but the pair collided and Jakobsen crashed into the barriers, hitting a race official. Condition is ‘good’,” tour organisers said on Twitter. The sport’s governing body, the UCI, had issued a statement strongly condemning the “dangerous behaviour” of Groenewegen, accusing him of causing the crash and disqualifying him from the race.
