Tragic accident at the Ironman in Hamburg! On Sunday morning, a motorcyclist collided head-on with a bicycle handlebar. All help came too late for the man on the motorcycle, he succumbed to his injuries on the spot.
As the “Bild” writes, at 8:45 a.m. there was a collision on the Gauerter main embankment. The handlebars of the bicycle were seriously injured. However, his life is not currently in danger. A cameraman who was a passenger on the motorcycle suffered minor injuries.
Athletes had to push their bikes over the embankment
After the crash, most athletes had to wait behind the scene of the accident until they could continue. Nine people were initially able to continue the race.
Despite the fatal accident, the race is not canceled or shortened. The riders didn’t have to get off their bikes until the second lap and push it over an embankment.
The motorcyclists accompany the triathletes during the race. The background to the accident is still unclear. (man)
