ROUBAIX, France (VN) — Chris Horner remains in an Italian hospital with a punctured lung and fractured ribs while police search for a hit-and-run driver, casting in doubt his start at the Giro d’Italia next month. The incident occurred Friday along the shores of Lake Como, in a tunnel near Bellano, while the 42-year-old American of team Lampre-Merida was training for the Giro. Lampre team manager Brent Copeland revealed more details of the accident. “About three cars passed him and the final one clipped him and left him,” Copeland told VeloNews. “He had to get up and get out of the tunnel because he was in a dangerous place, and his telephone had no reception for him to call for safety.”
