Jordan Sarrou (BMC Factory Racing) will miss this weekend’s WHOOP UCI Mountain Bike World Series round in Nové Město Na Moravě (Czechia) after breaking his collarbone.

The Frenchman was on course recon when the incident happened on Friday morning.

Sarrou had finished inside the top eight positions in both the previous two rounds in the UCI Cross-Country Olympic World Cup in Araxá, Minas Gerais (Brazil) resulting in a fifth placed position overall in the discipline coming into this weekend’s event.

The weekend action starts in Nové Město Na Moravě with the cross-country short track action on Saturday followed by the UCI Cross-Country Olympic World Cup on Sunday.
