I don't want to see Tour de France crash - Georgi

British road champion Pfeiffer Georgi has not watched footage of her crash at the 2023 Tour de France Femmes, where she fractured her neck and hand.

The 23-year-old crashed during a mass fall in the fifth stage of the race in August, spending 10 weeks in a neck brace.

Despite the traumatic event, Georgi viewed her recovery as an opportunity to focus on her successful season, which included winning her third national title, a fifth-place finish in the Olympic road race, and third place in Paris-Roubaix.

The crash marked her second major injury after fracturing her vertebrae in 2020. Georgi's recovery took longer than expected, with a three-month wait before she could return to the road.
