Tadej Pogacar is a famous bike star. He comes from the country Slovenia. He had a bad accident at the Spain race. He crashed on stage 8. A stone on the road caused the crash. Pogacar flew over his handlebars. He hurt his body badly.
The doctors find many injuries. He broke his left collarbone. A neck bone is also broken. He also has a concussion. This means a light injury of the brain after a hit. The bike star now lies in a hospital in Barcelona. He posts a photo from his bed. A song plays in the background. He wears a neck brace. This is a hard wrap for the neck to keep it calm. He has many plasters.
Doctors must operate on his collarbone. The surgery happens later. The doctors wait because of the concussion. He cannot finish the race. This is very sad for him. He was far ahead in the total score. Now a rider from Spain leads the race.
