Alexey Lutsenko Lutsenko will miss the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro after a training ride collision. The Astana rider injured his ankle during his final ride in Monaco. Theinjury will keep him out of action for three weeks.
"It's a shame that it happened right now, during his final training!” Vinokourov told Kazakhstan website vesti.kz. "Alex has just successfully completed a difficult Tour de France, which was his preparation before the Olympics, and he was in great shape. The news is a shock for all of us. Things had gone smoothly all year preparing for Rio and now this happened in the final stretch. I really believed he was going to be a contender for a medal. We did everything possible to avoid any problems but cycling, as we all know, is one of the most traumatic and difficult sports. I can only wish Alex a speedy recovery.”
