Update

Dario Cataldo will undergo surgery to fix a broken femur suffered in a high-speed crash during the final kilometres of stage 1 of the Volta a Catalunya, Trek-Segafredo announced on Monday.

Cataldo was among the worst off in the crash that took down several riders including Adam Yates (UAE Team Emirates), Michael Storer (Groupama-FDJ), Chris Hamilton (Team DSM), and Kristian Sbaragli (Alpecin-Deceuninck).

Trek-Segafredo issued a statement listing a fractured left femoral head and right hip fracture, along with two spinal fractures that fortunately did not have a neurological impact.

In addition to those serious injuries, Cataldo also suffered several broken ribs, a collapsed lung and a broken left collarbone

The 38-year-old is conscious and stable and is due to be transferred from the local hospital to Girona, where he will undergo surgery to fix the fracture to his left femur.

A winner of stages of the Giro d'Italia and Vuelta a Espana, Cataldo is a key climbing domestique for the team, having raced 25 Grand Tours. He helped teammate Giulio Ciccone to a top five in Tirreno-Adriatico, and completed Milan-San Remo on Sunday.

Although Cataldo is at the tail end of his career, he has a contract with Trek-Segafredo through 2024 but faces a long recovery from his injuries.
--------------------------------------------------
Update

Cataldo was transferred by ambulance to the Josep Trueta hospital in Girona, accompanied by Alex Flor Costaone of the Volta doctors who, precisely last year, also in Sant Feliu de Guíxols, saved the life of another Italian cyclist, Sonny Colbrelli, after suffering a cardiac arrest as soon as he crossed the finish line.

Cataldo will undergo surgery to try to repair the fracture suffered in the femur. Adam Yates (winner of the Volta 2021) was involved in the same accident he reached the finish line more than ten minutes late.
