This is terrible news. I really hope it's not serious.

You don't get CPR done unless your heart stop beating. So it was definitely serious. But let us hope he recovers, even if that means no more cycling.
There are athletes that did have some sort of a heart attack, and later recovered and went on with the sport. But it's rare with cycling since there is always so much pressure on your heart.

Some reports say he received Cardiac massage, some CPR, but the team say the heart defibrillator was only used to check for a pulse, so clearly nobody knows anything other than he collapsed.

I really hope so. That could make the difference in him having a further career or not.
But first things first, I hope he recovers to a normal life.
