Adriano Malori in induced coma after San Luis crash

http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/malori-in-coma-after-tour-de-san-luis-crash/

Adriano Malori has been placed in an induced coma after suffering a series of injuries, including head fractures, in a high speed crash during the fifth stage of the Tour de San Luis.

According to Tuttobiciweb, riders explained that Malori hit a crack in the road while riding on the front of the peloton. He apparently briefly became unconscious but was taken to hospital and sedated. Malori fractured his right collarbone in the crash, with a brief medical bulletin saying the Italian suffered multiple injuries including head fractures. He will stay under observation for the next 48 hours. Race organiser Giovanni Lombardi has contacted Malori’s family in Italy.

Get well soon Adriano.
 
Just read some updates.

They hope to be able to move him to a private clinic in Buenos Aires later this coming week.
Then they'll start to think about his return to Italy.

He is under sedatives, but not in induced coma.
They were hoping for him to be able to start taking liquids today.

Forza Adriano.
