The Giro di Lombardia is a premier one-day cycling Monument in Lombardy, Italy.
Tadej Pogacar has suffered a concussion and a displaced left clavicle fracture after a crash in the Vuelta a Espana. He will require surgery on the clavicle, but concussion precautions delay the procedure. He has left the race after a heavy fall, ending his bid for a third Grand Tour title.
Riders have staged a five-minute stoppage at the start of the Giro di Lombardia to highlight safety concerns after recent vehicle incidents and the death of a cyclist in Portugal. Remco Evenepoel has urged more stringent road-safety measures as the peloton resumes the Monument.
