Zimmermann's Tour de France Withdrawal and Future Plans
Georg Zimmermann, the Augsburg road cycling professional, was forced to withdraw from the 2025 Tour de France after a serious crash during Stage 9[1][2][3]. The incident resulted in deep scrapes on his hip, calf, and elbow, but according to reports, his elbow is now fine.
After being closely monitored by his team doctor, Zimmermann had to abandon the race. Details about his recovery progress or his expected timeline for return to racing have not been publicly disclosed[3]. As of the latest updates, Zimmermann is home, but there are no specific announcements regarding his rehabilitation or planned comeback[3].
Despite the setback, Zimmermann enjoyed the first eight stages of the Tour de France as the German champion[4]. He has set his sights on the upcoming Deutschland Tour and the World Championships in September[5].
In a possible sign of his optimism, Zimmermann believes that Florian Lipowitz, the top German rider, has the potential for a top 10 finish in the general classification of the Tour de France and even a stage win[6].
Meanwhile, a new magazine titled "Roy Black: Inheritance mystery solved" is about to be published. The title suggests it may focus on an inheritance-related mystery. Subscribers can confirm their subscription by checking their inbox or spam folder[7].
