Video: Luca Shaw Out With Broken Collarbone

Apr 26, 2019
by Sarah Moore  

Luca Shaw had a big crash last week while he was in San Romolo with the rest of the Syndicate team doing some last minute prep for the first World Cup of the season in Maribor.

Initially everything was looking good and he thought he only had a sore shoulder to contend with, but after a tough two runs in practice today, the team took him to hospital to checked out. The result?
A broken collar bone.

We're gutted for Luca and wish him the best of luck with the recovery.

 DAMN, I had my fingers crossed it would NOT be him, glad it was not a clean break, those take WAY longer to heal. Also glad it is now than in middle of the season, Luca should be back soon.

 Interesting twist after Loris voiced some notable frustration with being told he couldn't go to the iXS race last weekend. Sounds like the riders were forced to go film somewhere instead of preparing for the World Cup, and one of them was injured in the process.
