A package as a precaution. The day after her fall in the final of the World Cup event at Alpe d’Huez, the Olympic champion will not be at the start of the parallel event this Saturday on the signal trail.
A decision taken after consulting the French team doctor, Olivier Matarese: “Perrine suffered a concussion following her fall yesterday. This does not allow him to run today. She has developed recovery skills and there are no particular concerns for the rest of her season. ”
“I certainly wanted to do too well“- Perrine Laffont about her fall
If the first exams taken yesterday were reassuring, the France team does not want to take no risk within two months of the Olympics. Perrine Laffont therefore left the Oisans resort prematurely. “I am obviously very disappointed not to have achieved my goals for this World Cup in France which was close to my heart “, explains the Ariégeoise in a press release. “Yesterday, I certainly wanted to do too well and I fell, which does not happen often. I feel good today but my management does not want to take any risks for the rest of the season. I will now rest and take a few days of family vacation. ”
Perrine Laffont should back to training, to Alpe d’Huez again, at the end of the month.
