Froome almost completely regenerated from horror injuries

“The recovery is going really well - I would even go so far as to say it is almost complete,” the 34-year-old said on the YouTube channel of his British racing team Team Ineos after taking part in a virtual race alongside his teammates Geraint Thomas and Egan Bernal took part. Froome suffered serious injuries in an accident during the time trial inspection at the Criterium du Dauphine in France in June 2019. He was temporarily in the intensive care unit due to several broken bones. At the UAE Tour at the end of February, the Brit celebrated his comeback after an eight-month break. “I'm still doing some exercises off the bike to strengthen the injured right side. But I'm back to normal training and it's going really well," emphasized Froome and added: "I'm still staying very busy and of course training as much as possible on the turbo trainer." Whether Froome will have the chance of his fifth victory in the Tour de France (June 27th to July 19th) this summer is extremely unlikely due to the corona crisis. The start of the 107th edition of the world's most prestigious tour is currently scheduled for June 27th in Nice. However, professional cycling is suspended until at least May 31st due to the corona pandemic. The tour organizer ASO had to postpone the Tour dress rehearsal Criterium de Dauphine (May 31 to June 7), and two days later the organizers of the Tour de Suisse (June 6 to 14) canceled the second traditional endurance test completely. Tour boss Christian Prudhomme is still playing for time with a final decision. The ASO is said to have set May 15th as the deadline for deciding on the Big Loop.
