Joe Truman suffered a suspected broken collarbone after being wiped out in a terrifying 45mph smash in the Birmingham 2022 velodrome.
England sprinter Truman was knocked unconscious and needed oxygen treatment trackside before being evacuated from the arena in a wheelchair. The hushed 3,000 crowd, who had held their breath as medical staff crowded round the 25-year-old sprinter, burst into applause when regained consciousness and sat up.
Australian Matthew Glaetzer, whose skinsuit was ripped to shreds, also fell heavily – but he was not to blame for the smash.
