Cycling: Carapaz returns for the Amstel Gold Race

Good news for the Ecuadorian, Richard Carapaz. He will be back for the Amstel Gold Race this Sunday, we learned from his EF Education-Easy Post team on Friday.

The reigning Olympic champion had not competed since his retirement in the final stage of the Race of the Two Seas on March 10. He had to give up the GP Miguel Indurain and the Tour of the Basque Country, which initially appeared in his program.

“My fall was more serious than I thought,” Richard Carapaz recently declared in the Ecuadorian press. I was hit in the knee, the same one I fell on in the Tour de France last year. The decision to stop was the right one, in order to recover 100% and be ready for the Ardennes classics. It’s very nice to be back,” added the winner of the 2019 Giro.

After the Amstel, Carapaz plans to compete in the Flèche Wallonne on Wednesday, Liège-Bastogne-Liège on Sunday April 21 and the Tour de Romandie from April 21 to 28. In addition to Carapaz, the EF Education team will be able to count on the Irishman Ben Healy, 2nd in the Dutch classic last year behind Tadej Pogacar.
