Just four weeks after suffering a broken collarbone, Jonas Abrahamsen achieved what few thought possible when he outclassed the world’s best and claimed victory on Stage 11 of this year’s Tour de France.
The Norwegian rider dominated the stage from start to finish, and after breaking away from the group with 14 kilometres to go, he outsprinted Mauro Schmid to secure Uno-X’s first-ever Tour de France stage win.
The 29-year-old cyclist has impressed many with his remarkable journey from hospital bed to stage victory in record time. Abrahamsen’s coach, Lars Holm, commented: “It’s a show of sheer strength. There’s an enormous amount of hard work behind this, and I’m both proud and impressed.”
With this win, Jonas Abrahamsen becomes the first Norwegian in five years to take a Tour de France stage victory.
