Tour of the Basque Country: Steff Cras says she “came close to death”

The TotalEnergies climber suffers from a right pneumothorax, rib fractures and two vertebral rib fractures. “I was scared of my life because I couldn't breathe for thirty seconds. (...) I only had one functioning lung left,” Cras told the Belgian newspaper.

Cras, 28, left the Saint-Sébastien hospital on Monday and was due to undergo new examinations on Tuesday at the Herentals hospital, in Belgium, specifies La Derniere Heure. The leader of TotalEnergies remembers being catapulted “like a football by another runner”, the Slovenian Primoz Roglic, who was also forced to abandon but who did not suffer any fractures.

The Belgian hopes to be recovered in time for the Tour de France (June 29 - July 21), which he had to abandon after falling last year, sent to the ground by a spectator too far along the road.
