The collapse of Cadurisch during the women's relay and the unknowns related to the altitude

The Swiss collapsed to the ground during the first stage: there is talk of cardiovascular problems, now the situation is stable but, after Tandrevold's, it is another case that worries.

After the dramatic crisis of Ingrid Landmark Tandrevold in the Pursuit, the Swiss Irene Cadurisch also experienced moments of fear. The Swiss, the first fractionist of the team, collapsed to the ground after a few kilometers, and what seemed to be a fall due to an accident on the road, turned instead into a situation linked to cardiovascular problems, as emerged after today's relay. . The 30-year-old from Graubünden had a drop in blood pressure enough to be transported on a stretcher to the health center. According to the Rossocrocia federation, Cadurisch is in stable conditions, but the scene has created concern for the whole circus, including teammate Selina Gasparin interviewed by Eurosport: "It's a scary thing to see and I hope we can recover soon" , but to worry most of all was the Norwegian coach Sverre Kaas, who rescued her as soon as she collapsed to the ground: “I saw this Swiss girl who was going very slowly, she seemed tired. When she passed in front of our station she collapsed into an X position, ”she told Eurosport.
