Shocking Pile-Up at Women’s Milan-San Remo: Debora Silvestri Injured in High-Speed Crash
During Saturday’s Milan-San Remo one-day classic, Italian rider Debora Silvestri was thrown headfirst over a roadside barrier after a massive pile-up on the Cipressa descent. The crash involved several cyclists near the end of the 156 km race. Silvestri fell several metres onto a lower section of road and was briefly unconscious before regaining consciousness. Her team confirmed she was conscious and en route to hospital for further tests and monitoring. Despite the chaos, Belgium’s Lotte Kopecky edged out Switzerland’s Noemi Ruegg to claim victory in a sprint finish. The triumphant moment was overshadowed by widespread concern for Silvestri’s condition as medical staff continued assessments under close supervision.
